We will not go into how this fly's name originated, if you ever bump into Arno Laubscher you can ask him. It is quite an amusing story.
This fly has been a top producer of fish over the years. It has a great action and gets down into the zone quickly, zonker tail for movement, lead eyes and a skinny profile to get it down quickly and normally a gold body. Largemouth yellows have a definite attraction to gold.
With the dumbbell eyes placed on the top of the hook shank this fly rides hook bend up, resulting in few snags.
Tan is a great colour in clear water and sunny conditions.
