Chubby Chernobyl - Purple/Black | 3 Pack

A high-floating hopper/stonefly attractor built for rough water and bank work. The Chubby Chernobyl in Purple/Black pairs a buoyant double-foam body with a high-visibility wing and lively rubber legs, throwing a bold silhouette that pops in low light or lightly stained water—perfect for dry-dropper duty.

• When it excels: Late spring through early fall; windy afternoons; riffles, pocket water, grassy banks, and foam lines
• Why it works: Double foam keeps it riding high with a nymph underneath; purple/black contrast stands out while the wing and legs boost visibility and motion
• Pack size: 3 flies
• Targets: Trout (rainbow, brown, brook); opportunistic river smallmouth along seams
• Ready to fish: Durable foam, clean wraps, consistent proportions; high-vis wing for easy tracking

How to fish it

Dead-drift tight to structure and along seams; add subtle twitches to wake fish. Run as a dry-dropper with 16–24" of 4–5X to a small nymph or midge; shorten leaders in broken water and step down tippet in ultra-clear conditions.

Care

Rinse after use and air-dry before boxing. Refresh floatation with powder/shake desiccant as needed.
