The Shuttlecock Claret Buzzer Barbless is a brilliant, claret midge emerger designed to hang from the surface film. The colour provides a useful alternative to black and olive when chironomids show warmer tones or trout respond to a darker trigger.
Fish it on a floating line, static in ripple or with a very slow figure-of-eight. Use only desiccant-type powder on the CDC wing to preserve its natural buoyancy and movement. An excellent fish catcher - few moments beat watching a trout lift and take it cleanly.
