The Mini Hippie Stomper in size 18 and red coloration combines subtle terrestrial appeal with high visibility to draw strikes in clear or pressured water. This compact dry fly, created by Andrew Grillos, excels during late summer and early fall when trout turn their focus to smaller offerings. The foam body keeps it floating high, while the elk hair wing and bright body ensure it stands out on the surface, even in complex light conditions. It's perfect for fishing solo or pairing with a small dropper nymph for probing multiple depths.
