Fulling Mill Mongrel Meat - Black

Jointed, so it swims even when you stop

The articulation is what earns this fly its place. A jointed body flexes and hinges as it moves, so the fly keeps swimming on the pause instead of hanging dead in the water, and that stop-and-turn is what triggers a following fish. Two hooks also mean a short swipe at the tail is far more likely to stick. It is slim by articulated standards with the weight hidden in the head, so it fishes on a floating line as well as a sinker. Swing it or strip it.
