Caledonia Blue Vulture Riffle Hitch Tube Fly

A great choice for low water in the summer and when using the deadly riffled hitch. This lightly dressed, highly popular pattern, available in this hitch format, will be sure to pique interest. The key to hitching is to start with a fly that actually 'hitches' by which we mean, one that stays on the surface to give the illusion of skating quarry. All too often, the fly will become wet and submerge. Not so with these hitches, which have been tweaked on several occasions to ensure that the body remains light and the hitch holes remain proportionately far up the body to keep the fly up. Fishing with the hitch is one of the most engaging forms of fishing, you get to watch the fly work its way across the water and often, if there, you can use this method to identify a taking salmon. However, when they are in an aggressive mood, they will strike hard at the hitch and you're away.
