Perfect for fast-moving streams, the Humpy's design ensures it remains afloat, enticing even the most cautious trout..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Humpy - Yellow Hair-Bodied Dry Trout Fishing Fly is best utilised in fast-flowing streams and rivers where its buoyant design excels. To maximise effectiveness, present the fly upstream and allow it to drift naturally with the current, ensuring a drag-free presentation. Use a high-floating line and a tapered leader to maintain control. Employ a dead drift technique, occasionally twitching the fly to mimic the erratic movement of a struggling insect. This can trigger strikes from opportunistic trout. In slower waters, a gentle lift-and-drop retrieve can simulate a hatching insect, enticing trout to rise.

Key Seasons - when is this
