Micro Pat’s Rubber Legs Fly

The Micro Pat’s Rubber Legs is a downsized version of the legendary attractor stonefly—perfect when trout want movement and protein, but not a giant mouthful. Built with a slim profile and lively rubber legs, this fly excels at triggering reaction strikes in pressured water, clear conditions, or when fish are keying on smaller stonefly nymphs.

Despite its compact size, the Micro Pat’s still pushes water and screams “alive.” The rubber legs pulse with every drift, while the weighted body helps the fly get down and stay in the strike zone. Fish it solo, as a point fly in a nymph rig, or as the anchor fly with a smaller dropper trailing behind.

When full-size stoneflies feel like too much, this micro version is money.
