The Epoxy Flashback Claret Buzzer is best fished using a slow, steady retrieve to mimic the natural movement of emerging chironomids. Cast the fly into still waters or slow-moving sections of rivers where trout are likely to be feeding. Allow the fly to sink to the desired depth, often just above the weed beds or near the bottom, and use a figure-of-eight retrieve to maintain a lifelike motion.
For added effectiveness, fish the fly on a floating line with a long leader to ensure a natural drift. Vary the retrieve speed and incorporate occasional pauses to trigger strikes from curious trout.
Key Seasons - when is this
Flex Epoxy Buzzer Trout Fly
most effective?
The Epoxy Flashback Claret Buzzer is most effective during the spring and early summer months, particularly from April to June. This period coincides with the peak buzzer hatches, when trout are actively feeding on emerging midges. The fly excels in calm, overcast conditions, which are common during these months, as it mimics the natural sheen and movement of emerging insects.
During late summer and early autumn, from August to September, it can also be effective in the evenings when temperatures cool, and trout rise to feed on the surface.
How does the Turrall Epoxy Flashback Claret Buzzer Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Epoxy Flashback Claret Buzzer is designed to mimic the pupal stage of a midge, a crucial part of a trout's diet. As midges transition from larvae to adults, they rise through the water column, making them vulnerable and an easy target for fish. The fly's claret colour and flashback effect replicate the natural sheen of gas bubbles trapped under the midge's skin during emergence. This stage is particularly enticing to trout as the pupae are abundant, slow-moving, and packed with nutrients, making them an irresistible meal. The fly's realistic appearance and movement effectively trigger the trout's predatory instincts.
