    I was fishing up on Fish Creek in Utah. Nothing was rising. I put a sinker in front of a Dave's hopper. Casted out under a fallen pine tree , and wham! Caught a 21 inch brown! This has been my Summer time secret for years. Can't wait to try these! Fishing Strength and Honor 🎖

    It's super cool that you show us all these cool bugs, what would be even cooler is if you made a video fishing them. A 2 part series.

    Cheech, this is a real problem. Do I save this video under terrestrials, or nymphs? Now I have to make a new playlist for Drowned terrestrials. Come on man😂. I can’t wait to try this hopper!

      @@deltadeltas4558 bout the throw a wrench in your problem… here’s one for you. A hopper nymph still floats. 🤯 the nymphal stage of a hopper looks like a normal hopper with no wings.

    Want to know why nobody fishes sunken hoppers? Bc it’s stupid to think they can do a better job than the muddler…they don’t track…they aren’t consistent in water column height and the are overly complicated…

      Also, natural hoppers (with all the appendages) under the water don’t track well at all and are super chaotic in the water.

      @ natural hoppers don’t really sink either so it’s kind of a moot point
