Hood Rat

The Hood Rat is a life-like mouse pattern used for Large Trout, Bass, Pike and Musky. The Hood Rat uses high floating foam, combined with natural rabbit fur to give this fly both natural movement and perfect fishability. The Hood Rat wakes, gurgles and pops across the surface when retrieved. Perfect for big, aggressive fish!
