Tricolor cigar

At first glance this fly may appear as a grotesque monster. 

Oversized and with extreme buoyancy and additionally tied to fishing for rainbow trout. 

But I strongly believe in big flies for rainbow troute. 

Many times it has been shown that they can deliver when almost nothing else does and this particular combination of colors has become very popular in the south of Sweden to fishing for rainbow trout

Now you may think I'm crazy. 

What is it for kind of fly?

 It is one of my "normal" flies for fishing for rainbow trout. 

I have for many years been fishing, quite frequently, with hefty mouthfuls flies. 

Rainbows often fall for these monsters flies and often when the usual patterns do not deliver. 

Just this pattern has a very high buoyancy and I fish them much like a bobbie fly. i.e. with a fast sinking line and relative way short streamer, a maximum of 1.5 m long.
