BH - Ray Charles

Stone Creek™ BH Ray Charles – Grey

The Stone Creek™ BH Ray Charles – Grey is a proven trout-catching pattern designed to imitate freshwater sow bugs and scuds, two of the most important food sources in many tailwaters, spring creeks, and nutrient-rich fisheries. Featuring a realistic buggy profile and a bright hot bead, this fly combines natural imitation with just enough attraction to grab the attention of feeding trout.

The weighted bead helps the fly sink quickly into the feeding zone while the subtle grey coloration closely resembles the appearance of natural aquatic crustaceans. Whether drifted beneath an indicator, fished as part of a euro nymph rig, or used in a tandem setup, the BH Ray Charles consistently produces fish in a variety of conditions.

It's a favorite among anglers targeting selective trout that feed heavily on sow bugs and other small aquatic organisms.
