Peach & Green Peter

Lough bob-fly variant
Trout · Sea troutSubsurface

Peach-bodied variant of the Green Peter — fished as the bob or middle dropper on the wave to imitate the ascending/emerging Green Peter pupa on Irish limestone loughs.

Fish this when

In high summer on an Irish limestone lough with a good wave running, worked as the bob or middle dropper across the drift.

Why it works

The paler peach body reads as the same ascending pupa as the standard Green Peter but looks different enough to turn a refusal into a take on waters where fish have seen plenty of the original.
