Description
Rainy’s Bumble Bee is a highly effective terrestrial pattern from Rainy’s Flies, designed to mimic the natural appearance and buoyancy of a bumblebee. With its foam body for exceptional floatation, lifelike segmented design, and subtle rubber leg action, this fly is perfect for late spring through early fall fishing when terrestrials are abundant. The realistic profile makes it a great choice for targeting trout and other species in streams, rivers, and still waters, especially near banks and overhanging vegetation.
Pro Tip
Fish Calm Water: This fly performs exceptionally well in calm pools and slow-moving water where its buoyancy and profile can be easily seen by trout. Use subtle twitches to imitate a struggling bee.
