Tip
Tip: Use rubber legs for movement and visibility, especially in overcast or stained water
How to do it: Add rubber legs to give both movement and a visible silhouette in low-visibility conditions
Mistake it fixes: Omitting rubber legs in stained water
Why it works: Rubber legs move constantly in water and add a visible outline. In overcast or stained water, that movement and silhouette help fish find the fly.
When it matters most: Fly design, stained water
