The Holo-back Bug provides a profile for a range of effective weighted patterns for rivers and lakes. In this red version the head comprises a red bead with a metallic finish while the back, the “holo” bit, is formed from a length of red holographic tinsel. Of course, these colours may be used to create a range of effective patterns, pink and red being two obvious additions.
Try this low-riding Mayfly Dun for fussy trout that refuse a high-riding dry-fly.
