Streamer
Foam Frog
Weed-bed surface pattern
PikeSurface
A strong shallow-water option where pike are tucked around lily pads, weed mats, or reed margins. Slow-twitched across gaps in cover.
Fish this when
Lily pads, weed mats, reed margins in warm settled weather. Works over the top of submerged weed where conventional flies snag.
Why it works
Foam body keeps the fly on the surface even over dense weed. Sparse weedless dressing slips through gaps. The frog silhouette is immediately recognisable to pike.
