Description

The Purple Stone, crafted by fly designer Britten Jay, is a distinctive dry fly pattern that leverages the color purple to entice trout, despite the absence of naturally occurring purple stoneflies. Jay, based in Spokane, Washington, is renowned for his innovative fly designs and guiding expertise. The Purple Stone's high-floating profile makes it an excellent choice for hopper-dropper rigs, effectively mimicking the substantial meal that stoneflies represent to trout

Pro Tip

High-Pressure Waters: In heavily fished areas where trout have grown wary of standard stonefly imitations, the unique coloration of the Purple Stone can serve as an effective attractor, offering a fresh presentation that stands out.
