This pattern uses a semi-spun collar
(a "band" of deer hair) to push significant amounts of water,
thus creating a wake predators find difficult to resist. The fly is
also rather buoyant and this helps the fly to "hang" in the water
column. This fly, with it's bright colors, is
very highly visible and grabs the attention of game fish when they're in a picky mood.
It is usually fished in fast moving water with a steady retrieve on a
sink tip or slow sinking line that helps it get below the surface.
