Humpy - 8 Colors

Humpy

A classic attractor pattern, the Humpy is known for its durability, buoyancy, and effectiveness in a wide range of trout fishing conditions. Built with a deer hair body, this fly rides high on the water, making it especially effective in fast, broken currents where superior floatation is critical.

Equally at home in slower water, the Humpy's bold profile and high visibility make it a dependable searching pattern when trout are feeding opportunistically. Often referred to as the "Goofus" in the Rocky Mountain West, this time-tested design has earned a reputation as one of the most reliable attractor dry flies ever created.

A longtime favorite among Western anglers, the Humpy continues to produce fish on rivers, streams, mountain lakes, and freestone waters throughout the season.

**Fishing Tips**
Fish the Humpy through riffles, pocket water, seams, mountain streams, and lake shorelines with a natural drag-free drift. Its buoyancy also makes it an excellent dropper fly capable of supporting smaller nymphs.
