This is my favourite "dry fly"! With sharp snaps you make it do a
popping sound on the surface, which a lot of fish seem to find very attractive.
Once you get the hang of it the lure hardly moves forward when you pop it.
Sometimes a slow longer pull, which might make it go sub surface, also attracts
strikes. Apart from classic surface fish, the large mouth bass, I've had pike
and perch on it and once even a small catfish sunbathing in shallow water!
