{{+1}}Partridge and orange spider{{-1}}
{{start}}
This is undoubtedly my "go to" spider. Fish all over the world seem to find orange a trigger colour and along with the buggy shape, the movement of the soft hackle in the water this fly often produce a hit. There is also the added benefit that they are so easy to tie. All river fly fishers should have a selection of English Spiders in their fly boxes.
Materials
Hook | Thread | Rib | Hackle |
---|---|---|---|
My preference would be to tie these on a barbless limerick style hook but as I have not found one yet I have settled for a Knapek wet 10-14 | 6/0 or finer thread or floss | Copper ultra wire SM | Natural partridge |
