As anglers are turning more and more to catch and release, trout are definitely becoming wiser to frits and marabou! This Olive Popper Hopper is a great pattern to use on the buoyant end of a washing line when the takes dry up with blobs and boobies. It can also be fish as a dry fly in windy conditions to ensure your flies are sitting high in the surface. Tied with a thorax cover of foam, as well as the popper head, this fly hangs perfectly in the surface rather than on it, giving more positive takes and hook ups. Tied on a Fulling Mill Barbless hook with olive Seal X Dubbing.
