This fly is built on a micro clear plastic tube. It measures 5/8" or 15mm long. The Beetles are floating on the water in great numbers this time of year. I was just sitting at my bench one rainy day and started to tie. This beetle was tied as a result. The next day I fished it and the Bass loved it. It became a very good producer.
… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
