Spinner

These flies are designed to imitate the natural insect in its adult stage, specifically when it is ready to mate and lay eggs. Key features of these spinner patterns include:

• Small size: Blue Winged Olives are small insects, so the flies should be similarly sized, typically in the range of 16-22.
• Olive body: The bodies of the flies are olive-colored to match the natural insect.
• White wings: The wings are white and often have a slightly iridescent sheen.
• Hackle: A thin, delicate hackle is used to create the body and wings of the fly.

These patterns are popular for trout fishing, especially during Blue Winged Olive hatches. The small size and realistic appearance of these flies make them attractive to trout, increasing the chances of a successful catch.
