I have seen some of the dry flies they throw at the rainbows. Beetles the length of your index finger. NO KIDDING. (looks like these GIANT DUNG Beetles we have in Africa)
Will see if I can find the photos.

Hi Korrie,

Probably the Fat Albert you are referring to, huge beetle pattern! Various recipes, other than the one below.

That will work, also big Chernobyl ants and dragon flies. There you will see rainbows take dragon flies a meter above the water daily. Hook sizes 2-6.
