The Sweethope Hopper Size 12 is a highly effective, buoyant stillwater terrestrial pattern developed for searching the surface and upper layers. Its leggy profile suggests wind-blown insects, while its contrasting colours provide a visible trigger in ripple.
Fish it along wind lanes, near banks or on the top dropper. Let wave action animate the fly, adding short pulls and pauses when trout respond to movement. Placed accurately, it gives you every chance of seeing a trout commit at the surface.
