There are a lot of ways to attach hair and feathers to a hook, but not all of those are good fishing flies. Johnson’s Mimic Sedge is a perfect blend of innovation and fishability. The next time you are out fishing slick water or broken fast water, pull one of these out of your box, tie it on, and wait for your target to show itself.
