Purple Haze - Wet

Purple Haze – Wet

The Purple Haze - Wet is the subsurface version of the beloved Purple Haze attractor pattern — a soft hackle wet fly that produces when trout are feeding just below the surface and refusing dry flies. Purple is one of the most effective attractor colors in fly fishing, triggering strikes across a wide range of conditions and water types. The soft hackle collar breathes and pulses with every variation in the current, imitating an emerging insect or drowned fly with a lifelike, subtle movement that selective trout find irresistible.
