Great new fly for me to learn, maybe I will start catching something more than a cold. Well done Davie, much thanks!

Nice name for this fly, very marketable. I will tie this in tan and olive to match our local Idaho hoppers, and will try it this weekend.

Hi Davie
That's got Llyn Brenig Heather Fly written all over it. I tie a similar fly but use CDC as a wing instead of the yarn. Love your video's, please keep up the good work

I found myself in a fall of Heather Flies yesterday, without a specific imitation. This hopper worked a treat! Nice one!

Hi Davie,
I am not able to get to the trout waters just now so I went and fished the local ponds. I got several good takes from bass and pumpkinseed sunfish on this fly. I tied a few in black, brown and golden olive, all did well today.
Many thanks for the pattern and video!

Davie what could i substitute the polyprop? I'm thinking possum fur might be good, or hare... Also, would this be a point fly in team?

Hi dunamisjc,
Possum would be a great natural choice and would work a treat. I would fish it as a piont fly first but also in a team with nymphs with it on the top dropper, there's many other ways but these would be my first choice...
All the best Davie

Nicolelennonbabe 2 years ago
Hi Nicolelennonbabe,
I buy my materials from many sources it's because I tye many different patterns but for the mainstream flies your local shop would most times be able to help..
All the best Davie
