The Spider is a simple, highly effective surface pattern that creates plenty of movement and commotion on the water. With its foam body and lively sili legs, this fly excels at attracting aggressive strikes from trout, bass, panfish, and other surface-feeding fish.

Easy to tie and exciting to fish, the Spider is a great choice for anglers looking to add a fun and productive topwater pattern to their fly box. This kit includes all the materials needed to tie 25 Spider flies, along with access to a step-by-step instructional video from Togens Fly Shop.

What's Included

• Natural Bend Hooks (25 pack)
• UTC 70 Denier Thread
• Sili Legs
• Foam – Black/Orange

Everything needed to tie 25 Spider flies.

Why It Works

Fish are naturally drawn to movement on the surface, and the Spider creates plenty of it. The floating foam body keeps the fly riding high, while the sili legs kick and wiggle with every twitch, drift, or ripple.

Its simple profile can imitate a variety of terrestrial insects, struggling bugs, and other surface food sources, making it a reliable option whenever fish are looking up.

Perfect For

• Beginner and experienced fly tyers
• Topwater trout fishing
• Bass and panfish fishing
• Ponds, lakes, and slow-moving rivers
• Anglers looking for exciting visual strikes

How To Fish It

Fish the Spider near shorelines, weed edges, under overhanging vegetation, or anywhere insects are likely to fall into the water. Allow it to sit still, then add occasional twitches to bring the legs to life.

Many strikes happen immediately after the fly lands or during a pause, so be ready for explosive takes on the surface.
