Barbless Flies
Barbless Green Drake Wulff Fly. The Wulff dry fly was first tied by Lee Wulff, and with its bushy hackle is a great fly for those riffles which would sink a more delicate fly. Fish these flies as a standard dry, but don't be afraid to also fish these when they are wet - they are surprisingly successful fished in the surface film! The Wulff flies come into their own in an afternoon through to late evenings.
The Humpy is a great pattern to use during May, June and July.The folded hump and tail are
reminiscent of many crippled mayfly and midge patterns and the overall profile and variable colours
lend themselves well to various smaller stoneflies and Caddis/Sedge, as well as terrestrial patterns like
early season hoppers and beetles.
This fly is available in sizes 12, 14, 16, 18 & 20 (all be it there is not a great deal of difference in size
between the size 18 and size 20)..
