This PMD incorporates many things that make it a great indicator, dropper, or even euro nymph pattern. Compounded with Firehole Outdoors new slotted tungsten bead, a few wraps of lead free wire, and the realism of the split case there is no doubt this is a fish catcher. I tied this specifically as a dropper during the PMD hatch here on the North Platte and it has proven to work for me time and time again. Fire it up and let her rip.
