Roller Dog (Size 12, 3 Flies)

$7.50
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Description

The Roller Dog is a bold, modern pattern designed to create movement and attract attention in a variety of water conditions. Developed by Justin Warner, this fly combines unconventional materials into a unique and highly effective streamer profile.

Featuring a long, fluorescent mop body and soft hackle, the Roller Dog pushes water and produces lifelike motion with every twitch or drift. The bright coloration helps fish locate it quickly, especially in stained or fast-moving water.

Fish it like a streamer—strip it, swing it, or allow it to drift naturally through deeper runs. The added weight helps it sink efficiently, while the soft hackle adds subtle movement that can trigger aggressive strikes.

Sold in size 12. Three flies.

All flies are tied on barbless hooks.

They cast weird and easily fouled especially when a fish nibbles but doesn’t bite

The roller dog looks great floating along in a river - a big snack for a hungry trout. Can’t wait to throw it in some ponds in Texas next month and catch some bluegill and bass!

I like using “non-traditional” flys with my Tenkara. But when I do, am I still fishing Tenkara?
