Category 3 Habanero Tan - Gold Tungsten Bead

For pale bottoms

The pale one of the three. Over light gravel and sand a tan grub matches what is actually crawling about down there, where an olive or a dark fly stands out as an obvious silhouette against the bottom. It is also the one to pick in bright midday light. Same slim, deep-sinking profile as the rest of the family, and the same trick at the end of the drift: a small lift to make it look like it is leaving.
