The high-visibility solution to a common problem.
Trout eat far more beetles than they do grasshoppers, yet most anglers hate fishing them because standard black beetle patterns disappear on dark water. The Mountain Beetle solves this with a bright, dual-colored foam post. It gives you the perfect silhouette of a natural beetle on the underside, but the "traffic cone" on top ensures you never lose track of your drift, even in choppy water or low light.
Why we love it:
The Sighter: The bright orange and yellow post makes this size 14 fly visible from 40 feet away.
The "Plop": The dense foam body lands with a distinct splash that mimics a clumsy beetle falling from a branch, a dinner bell for trout.
The Underbody: The underside features iridescent peacock dubbing that mimics the natural shine of a beetle's shell.
Quantity: Sold in packs of 12.
Guide Tip: Don't be afraid to smack this fly down hard. Beetles aren't graceful; they crash land. That audible "splat" is often the trigger that pulls a trout out from under a cut bank to investigate.
