Chubby Chernobyl Small (14/16)

$29.99

This is one of the best fish-catching flies around, and one that should be in every fly box. It imitates many insects, such as Grasshoppers, Stoneflies and Drakes, but can equally work as a general attractor for when searching for cruising and rising fish. The double wing looks like a fluttering insect, while the foam body and polywing hold floatant well - making it an excellent choice for trailing a dropper.

Royal purple

"Had a funny experience on a local river where the trout would only hit the royal purple - we caught a bunch on those - tried other colors sizes and patterns but the fish were only commuting to the royal purple I’m getting some more !!"

Haven’t used them yet do

"Haven’t used them yet do to water temp. In Wyoming have been running hot . They will start to cool down in the middle of August. I’ll be on the rivers and creeks then . I have no doubt that this fly will do great because FAR BANKS ALWAYS PRODUCES A GREAT PRODUCT"

Wonderful bug that's a universal tool

"This fly is my go to for hopper dropper rigs on wild trout. It will suspend most 3. 3mm tungesten beads. Retains floatant well. And is the right size for both smaller fish to take, yet enticing enough to draw larger trout to the Surface. Black and purple is my favorite combo"
