Very cool fly. Don’t know anything about chronomids, except Phil Rowley hammers trout on Canadian lakes with them. Good commentary, too. 🐟🎣

Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Yeah these chironomids absolutely slay💪🎣, they're a huge confidence pattern for me and often get selected first when I see any hatches coming off. Cheers brother 🍻

Can you tell me the material you use for tying this fly. Thanks

[@TheRickyFleming]

Hi, really nice job. Can't seem to find the goose strips anywhere? Any suggestions on what else can be used for the wing buds?

[@TogensFlyShop]

Hi Rick, Turkey biots also work well. You can find them in a variety of colours on our website: www.togensflyshop.com
