In the spring, in the middle of the summer, and even in the autumn. You can get fantastic fishing on flying ants. The different species swarm at different times during the season. So having some of them in the fly box can be the saving.
This pattern is one of the big ones, you`ll see them in may
Hook : Mustad C49s #12
Tying Thread : Semperfli Classic Waxed thread 12/0, Black
Back Body : Hares Blend Dubbing, Black - Foam, Black
Wing : Hackletippets, Badger
Forward Body : Hares Blend Dubbing, Black - Foam, Black
Legs : Deer Hair, Black
Well fishing pattern. The issue is the deer hair you spread with the foam as legs. Change size and colors and you have a pattern who fits almost them all
