FAQs
What kind of fish can I catch with this fly?
This fly is effective for targeting trout, as well as other fish species that feed on caddis larvae.
What is the best way to present this fly?
A dead drift along the bottom is a common and effective presentation. Vary your retrieve speed to find what works best.
Is the barbless hook a disadvantage?
Barbless hooks may result in a slightly higher chance of losing a fish, but they cause less harm to the fish.
Can I use this fly in still water?
Yes, although it's designed to get down fast, it can still work in still water, especially near the bottom.
How should I store the flies?
Store your flies in a fly box to keep them organized and protected from damage.
Troubleshooting
Fly not sinking quickly enough
Check your tippet size and consider using a heavier tippet to aid in sinking. Ensure your line is not tangled.
Difficulty getting a good hook set
Ensure you are using the correct hook setting technique for barbless hooks. A quick, firm lift is usually best.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Attach to Leader: Tie the fly to your leader using a suitable knot such as a clinch knot or a loop knot.

- Casting: Cast the fly upstream or across-stream, allowing it to sink naturally.
