FMF Bristol Hopper Black

FMF Bristol Hopper Black

A bestseller

The classic Bristol Hopper Black wet fly style of pattern.

Originally inspired by the crane flies or Daddy Long Legs that are blown on lakes, reservoirs and fisheries and "jump" from wave to wave.

This tying style has become a modern classic, effective as a general representation of many drown terrestrial and aquatic insects.

Highly effective on most European lakes and reservoirs.

My personal and professional choice as a guide specialising in fine fly fishing strategies in lakes and reservoirs.
