Description
The Hi-Vis Ant is a visibility-enhanced terrestrial designed to help anglers track small ant imitations without sacrificing a realistic, low-riding profile. It shines during summer ant falls when glare, distance, or broken water make traditional ants hard to see, allowing anglers to detect subtle takes while still presenting a natural drift along banks, seams, and foam lines.
Pro Tip
Watch for the fly to hesitate or momentarily stall rather than fully disappear—many trout simply pin the ant just under the surface before eating it.
