Description
The Green Cheek Diawl Bach, is a highly effective and versatile fly pattern used to target both stocked and resident fish in small waters and reservoirs. This variation of the traditional Diawl Bach is characterized by its distinct green cheeked appearance, which adds a vibrant flash that catches the attention of predatory fish.
Pro Tip
Fish It on a Slow Retrieve: The Green Cheek Diawl Bach works best with a slow retrieve, allowing the fly to sink slowly and maintain a natural, lifelike presentation. A steady retrieve will allow the fly to drift or swim just below the surface, mimicking the movement of small aquatic larvae or nymphs.
