From The Slide Inn:
“Kelly originally tied this pattern to imitate small hoppers on the Madison, but it has proved equally as effective for larger caddis and spruce moths in late July and August. The Snowshoe hopper is also a great searching pattern, and is very difficult to sink despite riding low in the water.”
