Trout have a documented weakness for ants — they'll interrupt a mayfly hatch to eat one. This simple black ant with a hackle waist covers the most reliable terrestrial meal of the summer.

When to Fish It

June through September, especially warm, breezy afternoons that blow ants onto the water. Fish it tight to banks and under overhanging brush on light tippet. When fish refuse everything during a hatch, an ant often saves the day.
