Humpy fly (original) (raw)
The Humpy fly is a popular and effective dry fly used by fly anglers for trout in fast-water conditions. In The Professionals’ Favorite Flies (1993) Lefty Kreh praises the Humpy as: The Humpy is one of the best flies ever invented for turbulent water where many dry flies are quickly drowned. It is not a specific imitation of an insect, but rather is a suggestive pattern that looks buggy, floats like a cork and has fooled thousands of trout. It is a fly that every serious western trout fisherman carries (and many eastern anglers are finding just as effective). I would never go trout fishing anywhere—Chile, Argentina, New Zealand, Europe—with a few Humpys in my box.
