Description
Fly Type: This is a flashy and highly visible attractor streamer or nymph. The name suggests its purpose: to send a strong signal that connects with a fish's predatory instincts.
Best Suited For: This fly is designed to get a fish's attention from a distance. It's a go-to pattern for aggressive trout, especially rainbow trout, and it's also highly effective for bass, Arctic char, and other opportunistic feeders.
Best Time to Fish: This fly works best in clear water and sunny conditions, where the reflective material can catch and throw light, attracting a fish's attention. It's also an excellent "search pattern" to use when no insect hatch is visible, as its flash can trigger a curious or territorial strike.
Water Type: A classic freshwater fly.
Best Location: The Wi-Fi Pearl is versatile and can be fished in rivers, lakes, and ponds. It is particularly effective in clear, deep pools or over dark lake bottoms where its pearlescent flash will stand out.
Other Value: The key to this fly's success is the pearlescent or holographic material used in the body, wing, or tail. This material creates a bright flash that mimics a shiny baitfish or a gas-filled insect nymph. The best way to fish it is with a strip-and-pause retrieve to make the material "wink" and flicker in the water. The "Wi-Fi" is its ability to send out an unmistakable visual signal that says "eat me!"
