Per Dozen $ 7.00

Description

Heritage and Design Excellence The CDC Micro Mouche 2 represents a refined approach to micro fly design, embodying the French school of fly fishing’s emphasis on delicate presentation and minimal materials. This specialized pattern features premium CDC feathers arranged in an ultra-minimalist style that creates an incredibly subtle silhouette in the surface film while maintaining perfect flotation. The pattern’s unique design allows for both emerger and adult insect imitation, with the CDC providing natural movement that triggers strikes from the most selective trout. Each fly is meticulously crafted to maintain the exact specifications that make this pattern so effective across varied fishing conditions.
