About

A fly developed here in West Yellowstone and used on the Madison River. It is a cross between a serendipity and pheasant tail. It works almost all the time, looking like a caddis larva, midge, and even during mayfly hatches. It might be the rusty color of the pheasant tail that matches so many different insects.
