Description

THE FLY The black and red fly is a rare combination, one that requires a bit of faith to try. We favour it in humus-coloured rivers and particularly on cloudy days with subdued light. While it’s a flash wing, it remains relatively discreet, often catching fish even when other flies are performing well. We also believe that resident fish have a particular liking for red, with its appeal growing as they approach spawning. FEATURES – Two colour SSS mix – Tungsten turbo tube and micro turbo cone – Fished with loose bodies of own choice – Many possible colour combinations – Weighted flashy soft swimmer

Field Notes

Best in humus-colored or stained rivers and on cloudy days with subdued light. The flashy wing and weighted tube/cone make it a good choice when you want a discreet profile with extra attraction, especially for resident fish keying on red tones near spawning time.

Pros

  • Flashy yet relatively discreet profile
  • Weighted tube/cone helps it fish deeper
  • Good in low-light and stained water

Cons

  • May be less effective in very clear water
  • Specialty pattern may require some experimentation
