Versatility on the water

While not a traditional Tenkara fly, it performs well at the end of a Tenkara rod and on standard nymph rigs, offering a flexible option for drifting, rising, and probing different water columns to tempt a range of species.

Practical tips for the field

Try varying depths and drift speeds to locate feeding zones, and adjust tippet length for clear or stained water conditions. This fly pairs nicely with matching nymph rigs and appropriate mid-length leaders for different streams.
