Stimulator, Yellow


Designed to imitate a stonefly, hopper, or caddisfly, the Yellow Stimulator has proven itself to work in a variety of dry fly fishing situations and demand a spot in every trout fishing fly box. Hollow hair and ample hackle allows this fish fly to ride high and even hold a fairly heavy dropper fly. Whether tossing it during a stonefly hatch or using it as an attractor fly this pattern is always worth several casts.

Blue Winged Olive, Dun, Comparadun


The Blue Winged Olive Comparadun is a favorite for selective trout when buoyancy and visibility are considerations. Some fly fishing guides go straight to comparaduns when a BWO mayfly hatch attracts rising trout. This fly pattern floats in all but the fastest and roughest stream currents and selective trout seem to prefer this fly to many of the traditional hackled dry flies. Fly fishers around the world should consider this a staple fly where Blue Winged Olive mayflies are present.
