Weight, weight, and more weight. This MylesHigh original stone pattern is designed for rapid descension through the water column and ticking river bottom even when fished over fast drop offs. This fly was designed with fall in mind. When summer water levels and temps begin to drop, not only do the Brown Trout begin staging for their spawn, but fish begin moving into deeper, more pronounced holes. In these water structures and time of year it can be very difficult to entice fish since they are entering a more conservative approach to their calories. Not only does this stone pattern offer a substantial meal, but it makes sure it is delivered right to the front door. The balanced pattern design makes sure you're not hitting too many snags as it hugs the bottom. This is one of our must-have patterns for targeting large fish in deep water.
