"The Sparring Partner was designed as a not so subtle, reaction style, baitfish (parr) imitation. Built around the unbeatable swimming action of rabbit, the fly incorporates a two-tone flashy tail, with more flash in the body and lateral line. A mallard flank collar adds a punch of color and unique mottling, and then the fly is finished off with a tightly spun rabbit fur head. A very versatile fly and whether it&';s fished fast or slow; horizontal or jigged it will definitely get the fishes attention." - Signature Tyer Matt Winkler
