Akroyd Spey

THE FLY This is Mikael’s absolute favourite among the old classic Spey and Dee flies. Back in the early eighties, he had good catches on both Dee strip-winged versions and this one with a little cinnamon-coloured hair wing tied flat over the mobile heron-hackled body. This classic fly features humus colours, and perhaps that’s one reason it fishes so well on our Baltic rivers and Norwegian rivers running through forested areas. We appreciate both the classic approach and the sweeping heron hackles – it's no wonder this fly is still frequently found at the end of our leaders.
