Swiss Spent

After mating, mayflies die and swim as spents, often in thousands, down on the surface of our rivers. This is the favourite prey of our trout and grayling.

Swiss Brown Spent

This is the perfect imitation for the typical mayfly spent; many different species loose their initial color and fall as brown spents on the surface. Drifting down on slow currents or in calm edges, big trout will feed on this food- which they can easily pick from the water surface.
