Description
The Guide's Choice Hare's Ear pattern, hailing from Greater Yellowstone Flyfishers in Bozeman, Montana, represents a refined and enhanced version of the classic Hare's Ear. Earning its designation as the "guide's choice" is no coincidence. With the incorporation of soft hackle, this fly emerges as a lethal combination of both nymph and emerger. Its versatility extends to all Mayfly hatches, as well as Caddis and Stonefly scenarios.
Pro Tip
This is one of the best patterns out there! Use it for every hatch!
