Rio's Sparkle Flag - BWO (3-Pack)

Clarity on the Current: Rio Sparkle Flag BWO

Where Realism Meets Tactical Visibility

The Rio Sparkle Flag BWO is a thoughtfully engineered Blue-Winged Olive dry fly that strikes the perfect balance between subtle presentation and high angler visibility. Designed to mimic the moment a mayfly breaks free of its shuck, the fly features a polyfibre trailing shuck and a forward-pulled, stacked hackle over the thorax—delivering a lifelike silhouette that fools even the most discerning trout.

The forward-angled flag post not only enhances the fly’s visibility in varied light and water conditions but also ensures it rides perfectly in the film. When precision matters in matching Blue-Winged Olive hatches, this is the pattern to reach for.

Key Features:

• Designed to imitate a newly emerged Blue-Winged Olive

• Polyfibre trailing shuck for enhanced hatch realism

• Forward-folded stacked hackle mimics wing and body transition

• Angled flag post for superior surface visibility

• Great for slow to moderately flowing waters and selective fish
