Mýsla

Icelandic mouse imitation

TroutSurface

An Icelandic mouse pattern — a small surface fly that imitates the real mice that Icelandic trout are known to eat from lake margins and river banks. Used in the late evening when large trout move shallow.

Fish this when

Late summer evenings on Icelandic lakes and slow river margins. In the long Icelandic twilight when large trout cruise the shallows.

Why it works

Arctic brown trout in Iceland regularly eat real mice that fall into lake margins. A floating, skated mouse pattern triggers the largest fish in the lake.
