The Yellow Sally Crystal Wing is a brilliant stonefly imitation designed to match the small yellow stoneflies (Isoperla species) that hatch throughout the summer. Trout often feed aggressively on these insects, especially in freestone rivers where hatches can last for weeks. This pattern combines realistic coloration with a flashy crystal wing, making it both lifelike and easy for fish to spot.
Tied with a slim yellow body, fine hackle, and a shimmering synthetic wing, the fly captures the look of a natural stonefly while adding extra visibility. The crystal wing gives off subtle flashes in sunlight, mimicking the translucent wings of real Yellow Sallies. Buoyant and durable, it floats well on riffles, pocket water, and faster currents where these insects are most active.
The Yellow Sally Crystal Wing is an excellent choice during summer evenings when trout rise to these small stoneflies. It also doubles as a general attractor dry fly when fish are opportunistic. Fish it alone on light tippet for delicate presentations or as the top fly in a dry-dropper setup. Its blend of realism and subtle flash makes it a consistent producer on Western rivers and beyond.
