Hopper – X-Hopper / PMX

Hopper – X-Hopper / PMX

A highly effective and versatile terrestrial pattern, the PMX Hopper is designed to imitate grasshoppers and other large insects that trout rely on throughout the summer. Featuring a buoyant body with rubber legs and a parachute post, this fly offers excellent floatation and visibility on the water.

Ideal for fishing along grassy banks, meadows, and structure, the PMX Hopper performs well in a variety of conditions. It can be fished with a natural drift or lightly twitched to imitate a struggling insect, making it a strong choice for both surface presentations and dry-dropper setups.

Fishing Tips

Fish near banks, grassy edges, and areas where terrestrials are likely to fall into the water. A natural drift works well, but occasional twitches can trigger aggressive strikes.
