Description

The Little Olive Soft Hackle is your go-to fly for mimicking small dark insects like blue-winged olives or caddis. It’s perfect for fishing in different water conditions, from deep to just below the surface. The natural olive color blends in well, making it ideal for tricking fish that are actively feeding. You can try different ways of moving it through the water to find out what works best on any given day, making it a versatile choice for any angler.

Little olive soft hackle produced on the second drift!

River sees a lot of action, fish are wary…
Very effective fly!

My preference is Soft Hackles in both streams and mountain lakes. Drys and terrestrials in later part of summer. This little fly works great.
