We don't fish a lot of 5X tippet in Alaska, but if you tie one of these in a #18 on, you'll need it! This is a go-to for picky grayling and early season rainbows. If you have a hard time seeing it, try trailing it off of a larger dry fly.

The Gumdropper is a versatile little fly that can be fished in a variety of ways for trout and grayling. We love stripping it slowly in lakes for cutthroat. It also can be fished under an indicator (or big dry fly) as a fat emerger. It is also a perfect little swinging fly on your trout Spey rod! The matte black tungsten bead really gets it down in the strike zone, too.

Late August through September can have some great hatches of large mayflies known as Gray Drakes. When these big guys are coming off, trout and grayling go to town.

When the trout or grayling get fussy and refuse the usual dries you willl be glad you have a few of these in your box. This a great fly to drop off the back of a big Royal Wulff. Lightly dressed and subtle are the sparkle dun's calling card. Try it on a "Double Dry Dropper." Fished off the back of a big attractor pattern this fly is awesome.
