Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Attach to Leader: Tie the fly securely to your leader using an appropriate knot, such as a clinch knot or improved clinch knot.
  2. Choose Appropriate Tippet: Select tippet material that matches the water clarity and expected size of the fish. A thinner tippet often allows for a more natural presentation.

  4. Storage: After use, dry the fly and store it in a fly box to prevent rust and maintain its effectiveness.
