Mops flies are notorious amongst fly fishermen. Although they are often scoffed at by the purist crowd, these flies just simply catch fish. The mop tail has an irresistible pattern of movement that initiates a good reaction strike from a big fish. This fly is great for getting nymph rigs down deeper in fast water. Big trout like big mops! Tied on a size 10 barbless jig hook, weighted with a copper tungsten bead.
