A simple, but o so effective version of the classic hare’s ears nymph. It is a go to pattern for me fished as dropper when targeting grayling in all types of streams. But it also works well on its own both in rivers and lakes. Pink is a great color for grayling and rainbows but do not be afraid to try it also for brown trout, especially if water is cold and/or colored.
