Note: This is one of the greatest middle dropper flies ever. I have won competitions on this fly when everyone else struggled. It is small enough not to frighten fish, but bright enough to attract them. It got its name when my boat partner beat me 7-1 in a competition using this fly. He gave me one at the end of the day. It was originally an orange lure, but I tried the coral colored one and it was even better than the original. The scruffier it gets, the more the fish like it. It is also a good lure for perch. |
