Six (6), size eight, GFA Crickets tied with black 2mm foam, chartreuse indicator, black deer hair wing, and a black crystal flash underwing

Walter Wiese's GFA Hopper has been around for some years and quickly became a favorite of mine the moment I discovered it. My favorite feature of the fly is the segmented underbody. That little bit of realism often makes a difference when targeting picky fish. It's a great terrestrial pattern for panfish (and trout!).
