most effective?
The Rubber Legs Daddy Long Legs fly is most effective during late spring to early autumn, particularly from May to September. This period coincides with the natural hatch of crane flies, making it an ideal time to mimic their presence. The fly excels in warm, overcast conditions when trout are actively feeding on the surface. During late summer, when terrestrial insects are abundant, this fly can be particularly enticing. Use it in slow-moving waters or stillwaters where trout are likely to be searching for surface prey. Adjust your approach based on local hatch activity for optimal results.
