About the Roots Elite Buzzer Trout Fly

This is a relatively new pattern but its initial success has been so phenomenal I just had to put it in. The oil filled roots elite lace is the ideal material for making a nicely tapered segmented translucent abdomen. When buzzer fishing my standard point fly is now one of these in a hot or fluorescent colour. Not only does it act as attractor to the more imitatively coloured buzzers but it also takes a lot of fish.

Expert Tip:

Try tying it on gold or silver hooks or with a holographic, pearl or fluorescent underbodies you can get some incredible effects.
