Mike Mercer developed the most popular and best fishing Stonefly pattern with this Biot bodied Stonefly. The Micro version has gained the same popularity and has proven itself time and time again. Fish this pattern alone or in tandem with a Prince Nymph or the Little Yellow Sloan using fluorocarbon as the leader or tippet.

This is definately one for everybody's box. I have been using on the Crooked and Deschuttes to deadly effect. Have used it as the first,secomd or third nymph and has brough good numbers to the hook. Gave one to e gentleman that was down river of me and not hooking naything as I was pounding them. He tied it on as the dropper and proiceeded to catch two fish pretty quick. I just ordered a grip more. Give it a shot, it will not fail ya.
