The Snipe and Purple is a classic North Country soft hackle wet fly, traditionally used to imitate emerging midges, small mayflies, and other aquatic insects. It features a slim purple silk body and a soft snipe feather hackle that comes alive in the current, creating subtle movement that attracts trout and grayling. Its simple, timeless design makes it especially effective in rivers and stillwaters when fish are feeding just below the surface.
