With an ability to attract trout like a kid to an ice cream truck, the Ice Cream Cone Chironomid Fly is a chironomid pattern that should be on-hand whether you're on Henry's Lake or just your local stocked pond. A simple design that does a fine job at matching Stillwater chironomids, the Ice Cream Cone Chironomid features a thread body, ribbing for segmentation, and a bead that makes for quick sinking that matches the gills of the naturals. A range of sizes also allows you to really match the chironomids in your area, but something like a 12 or 14 is a good place to start when unsure.
The Ice Cream Cone Chironomid can be fished in a variety of ways, whether you choose to implement a sinking line or tip and strip it back to shore, a floating line with a slow hand twist retrieve, or even under an indicator waiting for cruising trout. This is a fly that's proven to be effective.

"Good pattern on size 14 hooks to attract the trout (and kokanee) bite"
"This works well on the days my typical go to patterns are not working"
"You can tell this is a well-tied fly that is tightly tied. I plan on fishing it under a dry as a dropper."
