- Unique Terrestrial Velvet Ant Imitation — The Red Velvet Cowkiller Ant mimics the striking red velvet ant (actually a wingless female mutillid wasp, nicknamed "cow killer" for its painful sting); a bold, fuzzy terrestrial pattern that's become popular in modern fly fishing for imitating these eye-catching insects that occasionally end up in trout water
- Deadly Red Velvet Ant Replica — Precisely imitates the bright red/orange fuzzy body of the cow killer velvet ant, a common sight in fields, meadows, and along streams across the U.S.; triggers aggressive strikes from trout when these high-contrast terrestrials fall or get blown in during summer and fall.
- Premium Fuzzy Construction — Hand-tied with high-quality dubbing or fur for a velvety, segmented appearance, excellent flotation, and realistic texture; durable materials create a buggy profile that sits naturally and entices even picky feeders
- Versatile for Terrestrial Season — Excels on rivers, streams, lakes, and stillwaters during warm months when terrestrials dominate; highly effective for brook, brown, rainbow, and other trout species, especially in eastern, southern, and midwestern waters where velvet ants are prevalent .
- Standout Must-Have in Your Box — A bold attractor pattern that stands out on the water for quick visibility and consistent action; perfect as a searching fly or during low-hatch periods, making it an essential terrestrial addition for anglers targeting opportunistic rises from land-based insects
