The Bionic Ant 2.0 in size 16 and purple is a precision tool for the technical angler. With a sleek, compact body and understated attractor styling, it's made for fooling wary trout that refuse larger or more standard offerings. Designed by Lance Egan, this fly pairs a deep purple foam body with a clean white wing and supple legs to imitate the struggle of a tiny terrestrial caught on the water's surface. The small size makes it ideal for sight-fishing, spring creeks, and late-summer low flows where every cast counts. Despite its minimal profile, the foam construction delivers solid buoyancy, allowing long drifts without drowning. The white wing helps you spot it even on glassy water, and the flexible legs add irresistible, twitchy movement. When subtle is smart but you still want a fly that stands out just enough, this size 16 purple ant is the one to tie on.
