What is more fun than catching a trout on a big dry fly in summer? There is nothing like throwing a cheeseburger-sized dry fly to a rising trout. From cicadas to little beetles there is a pattern to cover any situation. Some are specific but most are general terrestrial imitations meaning they imitate insects that live and breed on the land as opposed to in the water.
We also have a Dry Fly Pack which features the adult stages of caddis and mayflies.
So here are my picks to cover many of the terrestrial insects that will be falling into the water near you this summer:
- Deer Hair Cicada sizes 6, 8, 10 and 12
- Foam Cicada size 10
- Blue Blowfly sizes 8, 12 and 14
