Hopper Pattern
"My Boy Wonder Hopper has been in various stages of development for about ten years now.
The Charlie Boy has always been my go-to dry for a dry dropper rig, but as I got more and more into the hopper/dropper system, I wanted to build a bit more "floativity longevity" into the fly.
That process culminates here with the Boy Wonder Hopper. Last year, Jeff Fryhover, Russel Miller and I floated the lower Colorado and Russ, in a fit of "let's just find out", hung a total of nine tungsten beads under a prototype Boy Wonder and still never sunk it.
The dang thing floats. And it not only floats, but it also gets eaten too."

Carl's Foam Flying Anttop

Ant Pattern
It has been delivering hook-ups for clients for over ten years, and out-fishing many jazzier imitations for equally long. - Great silhouette on the water with its balck foam and hackle wings - especially from a drift boat, looking into shadows or dark banks. And the gentle sipping rises also become easier to detect.
