Fario Fly Pearl Ribbed Grunter

The Grunter has a somewhat unconventional design and is a rather strange looking dry fly, however it is absolutely lethal when used in certain situations.  In particular this is a great fly to use in March when searching out early season Brown Trout on the river or when fishing a sedge hatch during the summer on the lochs and lakes around the UK.  It also works great as a dry fly when used in “rougher water” when smaller more subtle patterns won’t stand out. This variation has hoopper legs whcih encourage the fly to sit flat on the water and get more positive takes.
