Dave's Hopper: The Order Orthoptera includes Grasshoppers, Katydids and Crickets all prime trout food for the summer months. It is important to note that Orthopterans grow very slowly so when fishing this pattern you need to match the size of the naturals present to truly fish effectively. Grasshoppers are good swimmers and will push their strong back legs through the water to get back to dry land. Twitching this fly will often trigger strikes.

We are currently updating our inventory and not accepting new orders. Please check back at a later date.
