{"product_id":"grannom","title":"Grannom Dry Fly","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Grannom Dry Fly is a dedicated sedge imitation designed to match the early season grannom hatch, one of the most significant spring events on many rivers. Typically appearing in March and April, grannom sedges can hatch in large numbers, often triggering intense and focused surface feeding from trout.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis pattern is tied to represent the adult sedge as it sits on the water after emerging. Featuring a slim olive or dark body and a tent style wing profile, it closely mirrors the natural insect’s silhouette. The fly sits lightly on the surface, making it ideal for presenting to trout rising confidently during a hatch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlthough primarily associated with spring, the Grannom Dry Fly can also suggest other small sedges and caddis species throughout the season.
