In this video, Simon connects an amazing late summer season beetle pattern. Beetles and other terrestrials comprise a big part of a trout’s diet plan in the summer season. This pattern is connected with a hi-vis wing to help in presence from afar. Usually, Simon likes to fish this fly on smaller sized creeks as it is much easier to monitor. On smaller sized water too, terrestrial pests are most likely to wind up in the water. When fishing this pattern on bigger rivers, Simon likes to run it behind a bigger fly like a huge hopper or chubby. The easy beetle is resilient enough to suspend a little nymph listed below it, or tag a soft hackle behind. Simon likes to fish this pattern with a tracking PMD dry fly behind it like the Side Sleeper. Beetles can be available in numerous sizes and colors, so do not hesitate to change based upon your fisheries’ requirements.
