Fishing Instructions:
Fish this fly as a "strike indicator fly" with a trailing emerger or by itself. It will float perfectly on the surface and you can see it from great distances. You can even drown it and fish it in the film as a cripple or emerger.

Note:
In British Columbia, they do not allow for a second fly when fly fishing, only a one-fly rig is allowed.
