Cicada - (Pack of 3)
Cicada - (Pack of 3)
The "Cicada" foam fly is designed to imitate adult cicadas that fall onto the water, providing a hearty meal for various trout species. With its buoyant foam body, splayed variegated foam wings, and rubber legs, it accurately replicates the profile and struggling movements of a helpless cicada.
The natural brown coloration and subtle profile allow it to drift over feeding trout without spooking them. The Cicada foam fly works well for enticing strikes from selective rainbow, brown, brook, and cutthroat trout when cicada hatches are occurring.
To fish the fly, cast it near banks, overhanging branches, and other structure where trout lie in wait to ambush cicadas. Allow the Cicada foam fly to drift drag-free, occasionally giving it small twitches to mimic the natural struggling motions of cicadas on the water's surface. Set the hook at the first sign of a take.
