In this time of crazy synthetics and ultra-realistic fly patterns the classic Pat's Rubber leg is sometimes overlooked. Anglers in the know, however, are still catching big brawny trout on this suggestive pattern. Fish it deep for a stonefly or you might even try stripping it like a bugger. The rubber leg may be an oldie, but it's a goodie. Use lighter colors (brown) as you get into late spring and summer.
