Trout flies for sale. The UK's largest online shop for fishing flies & gear

Field Notes

A bloodworm fly is typically fished near the bottom or just off bottom to imitate aquatic larvae. It works well with a dead-drift presentation under an indicator or with a slow, controlled retrieve in still water and gentle current.

Pros

  • Effective imitation of a common trout food source
  • Good choice for selective fish feeding near the bottom

Cons

  • Usually requires precise depth control
  • Can be less effective if fish are not keying on larvae
