The Fulling Mill CDC Hopper Fiery Brown Dry Fly Size 12 takes the classic Hopper pattern and enhances it with CDC materials, creating a versatile surface fly with an attractive and natural-looking profile.

The Hopper style was originally inspired by small craneflies being blown onto lakes and appearing to hop from wave to wave. Over time, this style of fly has developed into a modern classic that can suggest far more than one specific insect.

Its Fiery Brown colour and general terrestrial profile allow it to represent a variety of insects that trout may encounter around the surface, including small craneflies and other terrestrial or aquatic food items. This makes it particularly useful when fish are feeding near the surface but the exact natural insect is difficult to identify.

Tied on a size 12 hook, the Fulling Mill CDC Hopper Fiery Brown is a dependable general-purpose dry fly and a useful addition to any stillwater trout angler's fly box.
