Hippie Stomper

Stone Creek™ Hippie Stomper

The Stone Creek™ Hippie Stomper is one of the most effective modern attractor dry flies available for trout fishing. Originally developed as a highly visible terrestrial and attractor pattern, the Hippie Stomper combines buoyancy, movement, and fish-attracting flash into a versatile fly that consistently produces trout in a wide range of water conditions.

Featuring a foam body, rubber legs, flashy underbody, and highly visible wing post, this pattern excels at imitating stoneflies, hoppers, beetles, ants, and other terrestrial insects while also functioning as a general attractor when no specific hatch is present. Its exceptional flotation makes it an ideal dry-dropper fly capable of supporting weighted nymphs beneath it.

Whether fishing freestone streams, mountain creeks, tailwaters, or rivers, the Hippie Stomper is a proven searching pattern that often draws aggressive surface strikes from trout.
