A circular bronze medal, aged with a warm brown patina and matte finish, features a dry fly in central relief. Broad wings fan out above a hook curving toward the right. A thin, raised line loops from the left, circles the right side, and connects to the top. Fine lines detail the wings and bristling body. A small circular emblem is stamped in the lower right of the smooth field.
