Michael Hamilton –
The Silver Hilton fly performs well in the water with natural movement. I’ve used it in several steelhead streams and it consistently attracts bites. The green butt version works especially well in cooler waters.
Carolyn MacLeod –
The pink butt version stands out in the water and seems to catch more attention from fish. The hackle tip wings add a realistic flutter that mimics natural prey.
