There are a few variations you can add in to this pattern, but all the variations are simply adding materials. common variations are:
This fly seems to imitate most terrestrial and large insects found during the summer with great accuracy. Trout love this fly and anglers too because for the trout, it sits low on the water and looks like a variety of insects, and for anglers, it floats high, is visible and has little maintenance throughout the day. When you’re wanting to fish a dry dropper rig and spend time fishing instead of applying floatant and duster all day, this is the way to go and a PMX is an excellent option.
Use this as the first fly and then either tie off a dropper 18-36 inches below to grab fish on nymphs, or use another smaller dry that is imitative of a current hatch, or tie on an emerger and use this to detect strikes and catch fish. In short, it’s an indicator that will also catch fish.
