I developed this Flying Beetle pattern at the encouragement of the late Charlie Fox. From June until fall this is my favorite and most productive fly. It is excellent on all freest one streams and it is the fly I always start with on Western spring creeks if there is no hatch. I start with the size 14 in June then go to a size 16 by mid July when the streams get lower and the trout get tougher. A must have fly on the native brook trout streams in the Shenandoah National Park mid summer to Fall. Show more
