Tiny Baetis mayflies are perhaps the most commonly encountered and imitated by anglers on all American trout streams due to their great abundance, widespread distribution, and trout-friendly emergence habits.

Philip,
this sounds like the original Dardevle red on yellow, 5-of-diamonds spoon- or a knock-off of it, anyway. I used BIG versions for N Pike years ago; maybe try Gander Mtn or Bass Pro, they sell hardware like this?

Yes it's a dardevel spoon lure 5 of diamonds. All the online are the larger versions. I do have a video youtube under wnppmy a recent upload. Also a late trout shown caught with the spoon.
No idea where this 1 inch version is.
Tnx for replies.
I'd love to take on fly fishing, was a local fly casting beautifully on a 1st stocked day of our local trout opening day.
Might head to local dealer even walmart see how many trees I snag first attempts. It's a great art to learn.
Phillip, if you want some affordable fly-fishing gear, check out Cabelas. I am a budget angler and I use their Three Forks series and love them. Take a look, and they're now on sale for all of $35.00! I should buy a half-dozen for myself...
