The Griffith's Gnat is a quintessential dry fly pattern revered by fly anglers for its effectiveness in replicating a swarm of gnats or other small insects. Our flies are tied on hooks ranging from size #16 to #20, this fly boasts a body wound with peacock herl that offers an enticing shimmer, while its grizzly hackle simulates the delicate legs and wings of clustered bugs. When fishing the Griffith's Gnat, it's best to target areas where fish are actively feeding on the surface, especially during a hatch when midges are abundant. Cast the fly delicately onto the water to avoid spooking fish, and aim for a drag-free drift that mimics the natural movement of insects on the current. The fly's buoyancy allows it to sit atop the film, making it visible to both the angler and the trout below. Adjustments in retrieval speed and pauses can sometimes trigger strikes from selective feeders. The Griffith's Gnat shines in overcast conditions or when the water surface is slightly ruffled, as its silhouette becomes even more convincing as a tasty morsel to trout.
