Designed by Howard Croston—2019 World Champion, Global Brand Manager at Hardy, and veteran of the English International Team—this barbless stillwater pattern is a modern twist on a competition classic.
The rear-loaded tungsten bead gives the fly a unique “kick back” action that enhances the natural movement of the wing, making it far more effective than traditional front-weighted designs. It sinks quickly with a horizontal posture that trout can’t resist.
🔹 Barbless hook for easy catch-and-release
🔹 Rear tungsten bead enhances wing movement
🔹 Chartreuse hotspot draws aggressive takes
🔹 Proven on pressured stillwaters and competition circuits
Built for performance, this is a lethal pattern for targeting trout in all conditions.
