CDC Honey Ant

$20.00

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

Our CDC Honey Ant is simply a modification of Mike Lawson’s pattern.  Mike has been a guide, author, conservationist, fly designer and all around ambassador to the sport his entire life.  He has a love affair with spring creeks and has fished the Henry’s Fork forever.  If you get a chance, buy his book “Spring Creeks”- you will enjoy it.   We tied Mike’s exact pattern and fished it with success- but- decided to try a CDC wing thinking it would add more movement and realism.   BINGO!

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.
