Description

Give the fly a tiny sideways twitch—not a forward pull. Real drakes often struggle to right themselves after tipping in the film, and that slight lateral wobble is a dead giveaway of vulnerability. Trout that won’t eat a perfectly still dun will often smash it the moment it skews off-angle.

Pro Tip

Evening and Early Morning Fishing: Brown Drakes often emerge during the evening or early morning. Fishing the Brown Drake Standard during these times can increase your chances of success, as trout are more likely to be feeding on the surface
