Description
The Deer Hair Bee is a classic terrestrial fly pattern designed to mimic the natural appearance of a bee using spun and trimmed deer hair. Known for its realistic segmentation and buoyancy, this fly is an excellent choice for trout during late spring through early fall when bees are active near water. The natural materials create a lifelike silhouette and ensure the fly rides high on the surface, even in rough currents.
Pro Tip
Target Windy Shorelines: Windy conditions often blow bees into the water. Focus on casting near windward banks or vegetation, where trout are likely holding to ambush terrestrials.
