One of the original rubber versions of a blood-worm this fly literally took the fishing scene by storm! On its day will pull in some amazing catches and can be fished on a multitude of line densities and with all sorts of retrieves. This is a firm favourite pattern of the competition anglers especially on a manufactured barbless hook.
Some of the best results come from using this on an intermediate line with a slow/medium "twitching" retrieve , Inched back at a snail's pace or fished static under a Fario Bung. The particular version features 2 "legs" at both the front and back and is ribbed with red Flexi Floss over shellback of mirage tinsel and olive thread body. The body is then carefully varnished for durability.
