Tungsten Trico Trio from Richard Strolis on Vimeo.
As Richard mentions in the video, fishing a Trico hatch can be maddening because the fish are visibly feasting on a meal of thousands of flys. And therein lies the problem, getting them to eat yours. The Missouri river in Montana is a classic example. Watching pods of feeding fish working their way up and down the river in front of you is worse than watching Demi Moore doing a pole dance.
Enter the sinking Trico spinner which brings your fly into the zone where it only has to compete with a couple dozen, a dozen- at least not a couple thousand in any square foot of the river surface.
