The only materials necessary to tie this fly, besides the hook and thread, are two different colors of hackle. For that reason there are no recommended substitutions for this fly. Tie it up the way the recipe is written, and the fish will follow!
You can switch out the brown and white hackle colors for any color scheme of your choosing. Having a few different colors in your box is never overrated. Having a range of sizes in each of those colors is absolutely a good idea as well. Other than those variations, sticking to the original recipe is the smartest idea. There is a reason that this pattern has stood the test of time, and is still being used to catch trout today.
This is possibly one of the most simple dry fly patterns to tie. It’s a fly that is perfect for beginners to tie, but certainly shouldn’t be overlooked by even the most seasoned tiers. The bushy hackle, and light weight due to very few material make this fly float high, and be easy to lay down softly for a nice presentation. A stellar attractor pattern that you can probably tie with what you have laying around your tying area is hard to beat!
This bug can either be fished alone, which is the most popular method, or in a dry dropper rig. When fished alone the pattern is an effective attractor pattern for high country lakes, and creeks. It can also be quite useful during Summer on bigger rivers. When fished in a dry dropper rig the Bivisible needs to be followed by a very light, small fly to be able to stay afloat. The dry dropper rig with this bug is a wonderful option on small creeks.
