I've seen it often enough to tell me that fly has something special. Sort of like a Hare's Ear nymph - nothing fancy but a great fly. (I'm sure the other flies are great too, but I haven't seen them in action.) Willi |

A guide working in a fly shop in Mammoth Lakes sold me three of them a few years ago after I told him that I intended to go to particular Sierra lake the next day. He "guaranteed" that I would catch a bunch of good sized fish with it if I fished the inlets of the lake with that fly. For once, the supposed "magic fly" actually delivered as promised. I had the most productive day of trout fishing that I have ever had. Since then, I have tried in in a bunch of locales and have been at least fairly successful in most. I like to try it when there's nothing happening on top and nymphing hasn't been fruitful, or when there's a deep pool that needs a dredging fly pulled through it. Willi's right. Its not fancy, but it seems to work. Danl |

... snip Willi's right. Its not fancy, but it seems to work. Sometimes the most simple of things is the best thing. I guess that's why someone came up with "K.I.S.S." |
