Hippie Stomper Tutorial
This is one of our favorite terrestrial fishing for summer trout. It floats well and has all the key elements of an attractive fly: flash, hackle, and legs. The classic red/black color is probably the best for brook trout but we also regularly fish purple, black, and blue when we feel like mixing things up.
