ABSTRACT:
The tracking characteristics of a fishing fly are improved by a detachable, reversible foil having a rear socket which engages the eye of a fishing hook and a front, angled section which causes the fly to wiggle and to rise or fall depending whether the front section is pointing upwardly or downwardly. The rear lip of the fly contains a socket adapted to engage the eye of the hook and a set of channels extending from the front surface of the foil to the socket for receiving the leader thread. The foil can be readily slid on the thread onto the eye of the hook in either orientation.
