About the Bretts' Snail Thong Trout Fly
Brett's Snail Thong should be presented about a yard in front of tailing trout, but for spookier fish the fly can be presented well out in front of the fish, safe in the knowledge that it will be sitting up irresistibly in front of them as they swim past.
The secret of the Thong is that it is weighted so that it only just sinks, and as soon as it touches the bottom, or weed near the bottom, the fly rests on its tail of hackle fibres, instead of sinking out of sight.
