GRASSHOPPER HI VIS

Description

The Grasshopper Hi-Vis is a highly effective terrestrial pattern designed for summer and early fall trout fishing when grasshoppers are most active along grassy banks and meadows. Featuring a foam body for superior floatation and durability, this fly mimics the profile and color of a struggling hopper with impressive accuracy. Its rubber legs and segmented body create realistic movement that triggers aggressive surface strikes.

What sets the Hi Vis version apart is the brightly colored wing or post—usually in orange, chartreuse, or pink—making it easy to see in glare, shadows, or fast-moving water. This makes it perfect for anglers fishing at a distance or in tricky light conditions, without sacrificing the fly’s natural appearance to the fish.

Ideal for dry-dropper rigs, the Grasshopper Hi-Vis can support weighted nymphs while remaining visible and upright. Whether fished close to grassy banks, overhanging brush, or open runs, this pattern consistently draws big takes from opportunistic trout. It’s a go-to terrestrial dry fly for anglers who demand performance and visibility on the water.
