Body Glass Pupa

The Body Glass Larva is a popular fly pattern used in freshwater fly fishing, serving as an effective imitation of mosquito larvae. It features a translucent, glass-like body that mimics the appearance of real larvae beneath the water surface. This pattern is especially useful during summer months when mosquitoes are active and their larvae are abundant in the water. Anglers typically fish the Body Glass Larva in streams, rivers, and lakes, often using a slow, natural drift to attract feeding fish such as trout. Its realistic appearance and subtle movement make it a reliable choice for targeting fish that feed on mosquito larvae.
