The Stimulator enjoys the reputation of being one of the most popular dry flies in the Rockies. Fly shops sell them by the hundreds of dozens, and its no wonder. Developed by Randall Kauffmann the Stimulator is a great floater, highly visible, and sports a wide, fish-attracting profile. A good match for an adult stonefly, it mimics caddis and terrestrial insects just as well. Overall, this fly just yells "Food!" to the fish, and I always have some in my box. At first glance, the Stimulator looks complicated, but its made up of all the same components and steps as the Elk Hair Caddis.

You make it look effortless, though we know it took years of careful, precision tying for it to become effortless. Thank you for sharing this with us all.

By far one of, if not my all time favorite dry fly to fish.. it gets violently eaten up here in the PNW. Thank you for the content Mr. Craven 🙌🏽
