Description

This fly is precisely designed to tempt wary or inactive smallmouth with a very slow-paced bottom presentation. Used properly, this fly can do what no other patterns do– it appears alive even when at rest!

We use an unusual hook and weight configuration that makes the fly almost always ride head-down and tail-up. Even if buffeting currents and rough substrates temporarily turn the fly on its side, the special piece of foam in the rear still keeps the tail riding high (hence its name).

The HiTail’s design keeps the small rabbit strip pincers facing up, the foam piece keeps the pincers splayed out, and the super-undulating rabbit fur is continuously waving in even the slightest current. Smallies cannot resist this!

Tim Holschlag Signature Subsurface Flies

All of these flies have caught thousands of fish — smallmouth as well as other fresh and salt water species. Based on their weights and sink rates, these patterns cover shallow, mid-depth and deeper water situations. The various colors are those Tim has found to be effective under the widest variety of conditions. And they are not cheaply constructed imports like the flies most shops offer. Tim’s professional American tiers turn out durable flies of the highest quality.
