Stone Creek Silly Hopper

Silly Leg Hopper

The Silly Leg Hopper is a highly effective terrestrial dry fly pattern inspired by the classic PMX and X-Hopper designs, enhanced with barred rubber legs for added realism and movement. The striped rubber legs imitate the natural markings found on real grasshopper legs while creating lifelike action on the water that often triggers aggressive surface strikes from trout.

Built for fishing grassy banks, meadow streams, undercut structure, and pocket water, the Silly Leg Hopper offers excellent floatation, visibility, and durability during peak hopper season. Its realistic profile and animated movement make it an outstanding searching pattern for opportunistic trout feeding on terrestrials.

Equally effective fished alone or as part of a dry-dropper rig, this fly is a dependable warm-weather favorite.
