The H&L Variant is an age-old favorite of many anglers (including the late Dwight Eisenhower) due to its high flotation and an irresistible surface footprint. Contrasting colors show up well, even in the low light of dusk.
White CDC wings and a stiff tail of Coq de Leon provide superb visibility, while a peacock quill abdomen and herl thorax are sufficiently imitative to pull fish in for close inspections and subtle takes.
