Description
The Bibio Hopper is an old English style pattern, it is very good for loch style fishing or just fished on its own. With the ability to create a large wake to attract the trout up to it from the depths.
Dry flies are fished on or in the surface film. Treat the fly with floatant to keep it riding high, and present it with a drag-free drift on rivers or a slow retrieve on lakes.
Options: Available hook sizes: 10, 12, 14.
Andrew –
Bibio Hopper is my favorite dry fly for lake fishing in Tasmania and Victoria. It just attracts fish while being stripped or even polaroiding. Black seems to work better than other colours ( I also tried brown, red and claret).
Not as effective without legs.
