Vis-a-Dun Fly Tying Materials Collection

Baetis are some of the most prevalent trout food in our streams, and the fish have a sweet tooth for them! This is our variation on the popular John Barr Vis-A-Dun. This pattern imitates the adult Blue Winged Olive mayflies very well, and it floats like a cork!
