The 'Black Vixen'should ideally be fished on a floating line with a leader of about 3 m (10ft) or more. After the fly has sunk to the required depth, the retrieve should be in short pull of about half a metre (2ft), pause, some light twitchess, another pull, pause and so on. This will activate the tail section, adding lifelike realism.
