Bubble Back Boatman
CA$3.25
Designed to imitate the shiny air bubble real boatmen carry when diving, the Bubble Back Boatmand is a proven stillwater favorite. The realistic profile and subtle shimmer make it irresistible to cruising trout during the fall boatman flights or anytime they're feeding mid-column.
How to fish it: Retreive with short, quick strips on a floating or intermediate line to mimic a swimming or surfacing boatman. Pause between strips to let the fly rise slightly - thats often when the take happens
Best for: Trout especially during boatman activity in late summer and fall
Why we love it: The air-bubble effect draws hard strikes, and it's one of the most consistent patterns when trout are on boatmen
