Notes: I picked up this hopper imitation out West (Montana) and used it successfully there and here in Maine fished with a small p-tail flashback dropper of the rear bend. Big browns will take the hopper, and it acts as a great indicator for the nymph, which most anything will take. Have Fun! -Tark
