⚠️ Wait for the Eat! Like a slow-motion rise from a big Cutthroat, you can't rush the hook set or you'll miss the fish. We custom-tie and pack every single order, so please allow 3-4 weeks for your gear to ship. Don't pull the trigger too early, quality takes patience!

The "Blue Collar" hopper that works harder than the rest.
The Slum Hopper isn't trying to win a beauty contest; it's designed to win a fight. Built with high-density foam, this fly is the ultimate "unsinkable" terrestrial. It mimics a grasshopper or large stonefly that has clumsily fallen into the water, offering a substantial meal that brings big fish up from the depths. Its rugged construction means you can slap it against the banks all day without it sinking or falling apart.
Why we love it:
The Floatation: The segmented tan foam body is naturally buoyant and will never become waterlogged, no matter how many fish you catch.
The Visibility: A high-vis white synthetic wing and foam post make it easy to track in choppy water or low light.
The Movement: The barred rubber legs kick and twitch on the surface, providing the trigger needed to fool skeptical trout during the late summer terrestrial season.
Quantity: Sold in packs of 12.
Guide Tip: This is the perfect fly for a "Hopper-Dropper" rig. Because it is so buoyant, it can support a heavy tungsten nymph (like a Double Beaded Stone) underneath it without sinking. Cast it tight to the grassy banks on windy afternoons.
