“Semperfli is responsible for a lot of my favorite materials. The Straggle String is no exception. This material has the right length of strands for most trout bugs and can be used in many ways. This style (inspired by a pattern I found via @gavinjehu on Instagram) stood out to me as a super quick and dirty attractor fly. The body has a similar appeal to the classic Breadcrust nymph with some added movement and flash. Grab your favorite colors and create your own version of the straggler for your local waters!”
