Description
Fly Type: This is a streamer.
Target Species: This classic streamer is highly effective for a wide range of predatory fish, including trout, rainbow trout, and even sea trout. The vibrant colors and mobile hackle are great for attracting aggressive fish.
Best Time to Fish: It works best during the fall and early spring, particularly in the mornings and evenings when fish are actively feeding. It’s a great search pattern when you don’t know what the fish are eating.
Water Type: This is a versatile fly that works well in both freshwater and saltwater.
Best Location: Best used in rivers, streams, and lakes where you need to imitate a small baitfish or a larger insect.
Other Info: The Purple Martin is a variant of the famous Woolly Bugger. It's known for its pulsating movement in the water, which is achieved by a chenille body and soft, marabou feathers.
