Georgia Fly Fishing Blog

Posted By Kent Klewein on November 21, 2008

I created this attractor stonefly pattern to imitate the golden stonefly that’s found on many of our Georgia trout streams.  With all the stonefly patterns out there I wanted to come up with a pattern with the following characteristics.

1. A different look from traditional stonefly patterns
2. Create a pattern with both attractor qualities while still keeping the overall natural appearance

Comments: This is what I came up with and it has produced very well for me.  Let me know what you guys think.
