Surface waker
Foam Baitfish Waker
Wake and film fly
AspFilm
Covers the zone between true popper fishing and a subsurface streamer — when asp are pushing baitfish just under the skin of the water rather than crashing them on top.
Fish this when
Asp pushing baitfish just under the surface in smooth glides, evening lanes and when bleak are visibly nervous but asp are not yet crashing.
Why it works
A wake fly rides in the surface film and creates a V-shaped disturbance that asp associate with injured or disoriented prey.
