Passion Vine Hopper (3)

The Passion Vine Hopper fly is a small, brown fly that is often found near passion vines. It is a popular fly pattern for trout fishing, especially in the spring and summer months.

Where to use it:

• Passion Vine Hopper flies are most effective in areas where passion vines are present.
• They can also be used in other areas where small insects are present, such as near ponds, lakes, and streams.

Fishing techniques:

• Dry fly fishing: Cast the fly upstream and let it drift naturally with the current.
• Nymphing: Fish the fly under the surface of the water, using a slow, steady retrieve.
• Indicator nymphing: Use a strike indicator to detect takes.

Tips:

• Use a small hook size, such as a size 16 or 18.
• Use a fine tippet to improve the fly's presentation.
• Match the hatch by using a fly that closely resembles the natural insect.
• Be patient and wait for the trout to take the fly.
