Note:
I like to offset the hook slightly for better hooking quality.

I originally tied
this pattern for trout but it has turned out to catch every freshwater species.
People have told me I could not catch catfish on a fly but this fly hooked an 8
pound channel cat.

I coat this
pattern with floatant & fish it on a sink line & leader. Retrieve can vary from
slow stripping (like fishing off the float tube) to short jerk strip retrieve.
