Pearly Hares Ear Shuttlecock - #14

The Pearl Hare’s Ear Shuttlecock is a highly effective buzzer pattern for fishing in or just below the surface film. It combines the natural, scruffy appearance of hare’s ear dubbing with a pearl body that catches the light and adds a subtle flash.

Its shuttlecock profile represents an emerging buzzer making its way through the surface, when trout can become completely focused on insects trapped at this vulnerable stage. The natural hare’s ear fibres create plenty of movement and help soften the flash from the pearl body.

A reliable fly for stillwater trout fishing, particularly when buzzers are hatching and fish are feeding near the surface. It can be fished individually or as part of a team, allowing it to drift naturally with the movement of the water. Barbless
