Nitro Halo Hopper Fly Tying Kit

The Classic Morrish Hopper. Elevated. Built to Stay in the Film, Stay Visible, and Get Eaten.

Hopper season doesn't wait. And neither should you.

The Nitro Halo Hopper starts where the legendary Morrish Hopper leaves off. The original Morrish is a masterpiece of restraint — stacked foam body, rubber legs, no wing, nothing wasted. It catches fish because it's honest. The Nitro Halo Hopper honors that foundation completely, then solves the two problems the original design was never built to address: keeping you on the fly in fast water and keeping the body riding true cast after cast.

Two additions. Both purposeful. Zero compromise on the natural profile that makes trout eat.

This kit contains every material you need to tie this fly from scratch — curated, matched, and ready to go straight from the package to the vise.
🪰 What's in the Kit
  • Moonlit Premium TOGATTA ML401 Hooks (Sizes 6–12) — Chemically sharpened, competition-grade dry fly hooks engineered for positive hook-sets on aggressive surface strikes
  • Semperfli Classic Waxed Thread 6/0 Medium Olive — Fine, strong, and smooth-laying for clean thread wraps and a finished head that holds up to hard fishing
  • Moonlit Zero Gravity Tying Foam 2mm — Dark Brown & Frogger Green — Stacked and glued for a natural dual-tone body that sits flush in the surface film with the right posture on every drift
  • Moonlit Fly Fishing Halo Hair — Mahogany Brown — A proprietary water-repelling synthetic fiber that adds genuine floatation and a natural wing profile without a single drop of water absorption — ever (Substituted with Hawg Wing Teton Brown until Halo Hair is Available June 2026)
  • Semperfli Grizzly Flutter SiliLegs — Olive Barred Black — Micro-barred silicone legs with built-in movement that triggers strikes on a dead drift without any angler manipulation
  • Moonlit Zero Gravity Fly Tying Foam 1mm — Bright Green — The hi-vis indicator over wing that locks your eyes onto the fly in riffles, glare, and low light, while simultaneously keeping the body stabilized and twist-free
🎯 Why This Fly Catches More Fish Than the Original

The Morrish Hopper carries no wing by design. Adding the wrong material would ruin what makes it work. The Halo Hair wing changes that equation entirely:

✅ Halo Hair adds floatation without weight — repels water rather than absorbing it, so the fly rides higher longer with no re-floatant needed after takes ✅ No wing on the Morrish = no sighting point — the bright green foam over wing solves that without bulking up the fly or killing the natural profile ✅ Body twist is real — the structured over wing stabilizes the foam body axis so the fly drifts true on cast 1 and cast 100 ✅ SiliLegs move in current — that micro leg action draws strikes when static rubber legs would get passed over ✅ Tied from size 6 to 14 — one versatile pattern that covers every hopper scenario from big cutbank water to pressured meadow spring creeks

📅 Fish It Now — Before the Season Passes You By
There's a window in late summer when the banks are loaded with hoppers and big trout are crashing the surface with no hesitation. That window opens fast, closes faster, and the fish that are looking up right now are waiting on the right fly.

This kit ships fast. Tie it tonight. Be on the water this weekend with something that actually works.

One kit. One pattern. One season you won't forget.
