 The Gumdrop slider is an excellent, subtle top water bug  for warmwater fly fishing. Here' I've jazzed it up with some legs and softer collar for slow "do nothing" presentations that are excellent for bluegill, other panfish and bass.

Despite its simplicity, this fly is a great taker of both trout and grayling and frankly, the partridge and yellow should be in every river angler's box.
