Fario Fly – Olive Mini 5cm Snake

The snake fly is without a doubt the “heavy weight” of the trout fly world and this huge fly has the ability to pull fish out of nowhere and big fish too! The pink¬†version we have found to be extremely effective for fresh “stockies” at the start of the season and is excellent for end of season fry feeders. Fish this on a variety of lines from a floater right down to a fast sinking line. The best retrieves are just as varied as the line choice, where a super slow figure of eight can be just as effective as a fast strip. One thing we have found when using these flies is mixing the retrieve around can bring great results and without a doubt always, always, always “hang this fly”.
