If you fish for trout and panfish with a flyrod…..then you have to check out our Terrestrial “Fly-Kit” patterns:  Hopper; Hi-Vis Ant; CDC Honey Ant; Blue Damsel Adult; Flashback Beetle and Lady Bug.

Everyone knows what a Lady Bug is!   We just didn’t know if fish would eat them or not.  In fact, while playing golf one day, we watched birds pick them up and drop them rather than eating them…..so we were convinced something was wrong.  The next time we were fishing at our local Trout Club, we tossed a few in and the Rainbows ate them with reckless abandon.   Using some techniques stolen from our good friend Bob Mead’s realistic Lady Bug pattern we set out to create a “fishing fly”.  The end result is a really cool Lady Bug that catches fish and little kids!

Try this effective pattern when you can’t detect a hatch- and don’t forget to try our other Terrestrial “Fly-Kit” patterns.

Each “Fly-Kit”^tm  includes:

•  a custom tied fly, carefully packaged in a small plastic box.

•  color, digital, photographs of the tying steps.

•  a letter including material preparation tips & other information.

•  premium hooks in our favorite size.

•  all the necessary materials, hand selected, to tie eleven additional flies.
