The "Winter Special" that works all year round.
Sometimes fish need a wake-up call. This fly combines the centuries-old effectiveness of the Hare's Ear, with its buggy, spiky dubbing, with a modern "Hot Head" trigger. The bright pink tungsten bead stands out against the gray river bottom, while the soft CDC collar adds a lifelike pulse that rigid epoxy flies just can't match.
Why we love it:
The Aggression Trigger: The fluorescent pink bead and thread collar enrage fish during the winter doldrums or in off-color water where standard naturals get lost.
The Buggy Texture: The spiky hare's ear dubbing body traps air bubbles and looks like real food (scuds, sowbugs, or caddis) to the fish.
The Movement: The soft gray CDC collar undulates in the current, convincing wary trout that the fly is alive and kicking.
Quantity: Sold in packs of 12.
Guide Tip: This is a lethal pattern for winter tailwater fisheries. The pink color is a proven killer for rainbow trout in cold water. Fish it deep and slow in the main channel, or use it as a dropper behind a heavy stonefly during spring runoff.
