In the world, there are literally
thousands of different dry fly patterns. Only a handful of fly fishers having
even heard of them, some are well known, some are very obscure.
Only a few have been universally
successful although all have caught fish as per white river fly guide. So, here of all time - the top ten deadliest
dry flies are!
Spent Mayfly
The Spent Mayfly is over 100
years old and is the classic spinner pattern. Why it is still popular today,
there is a very good reason - it works!
Black Gnat
Early in the season when there
are few flies hatching is at its best although The Black Gnat is deadly all
year round.
Balloon Caddis
Catch returns speak for
themselves but an unusual entry.
CDC Mayfly
A modern variation on the classic
patterns is the most effective of the Mayfly patterns. As compared to the other
entire Mayfly patterns put together, this dry fly probably catches more fish
Used in early June and late May. The trout fishing in the white river in Arkansas is a great fun!
Olive Dun
Representing a great number of
upwing fly duns, it is a generic pattern. All year round, it is Deadly.
Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear
Great fly, great name! In the
spring, it is most effective and can be used all year round. To grayling and trout,
it seems to be attractive but unique scruffy pattern is unmissable.
Para Adams: According to my catch
returns, it is the best pattern by some margin. The Para Adams comes in the
full range of hook sizes and is generic. Allowing even the heaviest handed
caster to present the fly in a delicate manner, the parachute is pattern.
To
represent a Mayfly, a size 10 is used sometimes but in the summer, most often
use sizes 14-18 to imitate olive flies. You are lowering your chances of
success, If you don't have this pattern in your fly box.
