Trico Spinner (Feather Wing)

$2.75

Another prolific hatch, these tiny mayflies show up in late summer and early fall, and clouds of mating spinners can be see along the banks of many rivers and streams once air temperatures reach 68 F/ 20 C. Most patterns are tied to represent the spent spinners, but a parachute dun pattern with an olive green abdomen fished at the start of the spinner clouds often works well. Visibility of your fly can be a problem when the surface is covered with spinners, but using a slightly larger fly tied to represent 2 spinners together, or using a pattern with a high visibility upright wing post can help. Another trick that some find works well is using a size 18 red flying ant pattern during the spinner fall – no scientific explanation for this!
