The Mosier’s Ant – Green is a high-floating terrestrial dry fly designed with traditional materials for realistic presentation and durability. Made from elk hair and acetate thread, this pattern features a hollow segmented body that gives it excellent buoyancy and a lifelike silhouette. The subtle green hue offers a slightly brighter alternative to natural tones, making it especially effective in varied light conditions or lightly stained water.
This pattern is perfect for fishing riffles, seams, and undercut banks where real ants frequently fall into the current. Its elk hair wing adds visibility and flotation, while the slim profile ensures a natural drift—ideal when trout are keyed in on terrestrials but ignoring larger or flashier patterns.
Best for:
- Prospecting on freestone streams and small rivers
- Targeting trout feeding on ants and small terrestrials
- Summer and early fall dry fly fishing
📌 Pro Tip: Cast Mosier’s Ant – Green tight to the bank or near mid-stream rocks on breezy afternoons. Add a subtle twitch to mimic a struggling ant and draw aggressive strikes from fish that might otherwise ignore a dead drift.
