This cheap and easy pattern is so simple that it just might work…. It utilizes fish’s weakness for marabou. There are no substitutes for marabou in most cases. It flows and pulses in the water better than any other material. The body inside adds some bulk and flash while the marabou tricks the fish into eating.
Cast this fly into likely spots to hold fish. Around a log, rocks, or overhangs are the best places to try. Cast as close as you can to the bank and work the fly slowly back to you with short quick strips with long pauses. Strip just enough to get the marabou to react to your strip. You want it to slim down when you strip and then “pop” up when you stop. Fish will eat this fly when you pause it after a strip. Keep your rod tip low and strip set the fly when you feel pressure.
