"When all else failed", the glow fly worked. This is called not being skunked, thus success; failure was only a glow fly away.

i admit its not a great foto but it was about 2lb , it was a cracker , the fly looked awesome in the water , you could see it from the bank easily ..until i
put a hi-D sinking tip on then it was too deep but the fish would see it easily .why is it so hard to believe a trout would take such a big fly , this is not
unusual at all , i have caught trout on spinners bigger than the fish!! the glo-stick fly is no bigger than a tube fly with a 1.5" body..
