Description
The Bionic Ant- Created by Lance Eagan, fills the niche between large and small ant patterns, offering visibility and buoyancy without intimidating even the most selective fish. Its design strikes a balance, ensuring it gets noticed while remaining small enough to be devoured, making it ideal for dry/dropper fishing scenarios. Hook size 10-14
Pro Tip
Slightly twist the foam body as you tie it in so the ant sits at a subtle diagonal on the surface. That off-axis posture makes the fly wobble and quiver on micro-currents, which perfectly mimics a struggling terrestrial and triggers aggressive takes on otherwise calm, glassy water.
