FAQs

What size hook is used?

The fly is tied on a size 10 hook.

What conditions is this fly most effective in?

It is most effective when fish are feeding on fry, especially in reservoirs during late season.

Can I use this fly in rivers?

While designed for reservoirs, it may be effective in rivers where fry are present and the conditions are suitable.

How should I store the fly?

Store the flies in a fly box to protect the hook and the tying materials.

What is the best retrieve technique?

A slow, steady retrieve with occasional twitches often works well.

Is a specific leader type recommended?

A fluorocarbon leader is recommended as it is less visible underwater.

Troubleshooting

Fly not attracting fish.

Experiment with different retrieval speeds and depths. Ensure the fly is presented naturally.

Fly getting tangled.

Check your leader for twists and tangles. Adjust your casting technique to avoid tangling.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Specifically designed for late-season reservoir fishing.
  • High-quality construction from Fulling Mill.
  • Versatile in various fishing conditions.
  • Proven track record in catching fish.

Cons

  • Effectiveness depends on the presence and feeding habits of fry.
  • May not be as effective in waters where fry are not a primary food source.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Rigging: Attach the fly to your leader using a loop knot or a clinch knot. Ensure the knot is securely tied.
  2. Leader: Use a leader appropriate for the size of the fly and the target species. A fluorocarbon leader can offer better invisibility.
  3. Presentation: Cast the fly near areas where fish are likely to be feeding on fry, such as near weed beds or along drop-offs.
  4. Retrieval: Vary your retrieve speed to find what works best. A slow, steady retrieve with occasional twitches can be effective.
  5. Care: After use, rinse the fly with fresh water and allow it to air dry. Store flies in a fly box to protect them from damage.
