More Fishing the Carpenter Ant
Like all of our ant patterns, the carpenter ants have three (3) body sections like real ants
do. Carpenter ants have antennae. Our patterns have antennae. If you have even watch
hundreds of these ants getting into the water, would you not want to have a fly that
looked like the real ones?
Like any ant pattern, the best time to fish imitations of the carpenter ant is during the
summer and early fall when they are plentiful. Heavy rains can wash a huge number of
these ants into the water in areas where they are plentiful.
We have gone a step farther than most ant flies you can obtain commercially. We have
made the legs a little more realistic. They are not just rubber bands. They are bent to
resemble ant legs. When trout have the opportunity to view a lot of these ants in the
water, we would prefer to have one that looked like a real carpenter ant. But then there
are those anglers who believe luck is the only thing important. We like both luck and a
good imitation of anything we tie on the end of our lines.
