Collection: Terrestrial Flies
From mid-summer to the first frost, terrestrials are a staple in a fish's diet. A clumsy grasshopper or ant blown into the water represents a big, easy meal. Our terrestrial patterns are designed to be visible, buoyant, and irresistible. They are perfect for prospecting along grassy banks and are the foundation of the incredibly effective "hopper-dropper" rig.
Our Terrestrial Philosophy: Ring the Dinner Bell.
When a big, juicy grasshopper or a clumsy beetle falls into the water, it's like ringing the dinner bell for the biggest fish in the pool. Our RIVFLY SELECT terrestrials are all about that "splat". We choose patterns that are buoyant, easy to see, and have the right silhouette to trigger that opportunistic, aggressive eat. When the delicate mayfly hatches are over, it's time for these protein-packed meals to shine.
