Hackle Stacker fly pattern - Mayfly emerger image

Description

The Hackle Stacker Dry Fly was designed by Bob Quigley, a legendary fly tier from Northern California, to revolutionize dry fly patterns for mayfly imitation. Known for its unique hackle-stacked design, this fly offers exceptional floatation and a natural mayfly silhouette. Its versatility allows it to imitate various mayfly species in their adult or dun stage.

Curated by the IdentaFly fly fishing team.

Pro Tip

Use the Hackle Stacker as the lead fly in a dry-dropper rig. Attach a small nymph or emerger pattern about 18–24 inches below it to cover both surface and subsurface feeding zones.
