We also publish an online monthly Top 10 Chart showcasing the most popular fishing flies each month currently being used on the lakes and rivers throughout the world.

Apache White

The Apache White is probably the most exciting and devastatingly successful fishing pattern to hit lakes, ponds and reservoirs. The pulsing movement of the white mink body plus the stimulating flowing and eye catching movement of the marabou and flashabou tail make it a serious killer. Two to three short jerks followed by a steady retrieve then pause, repeat and be ready for savage takes.

Apache Black

The Apache Black is probably the most exciting and devastatingly successful pattern to hit lakes, ponds and reservoirs. Its dark colour profile makes it an excellent imitation of natural insects, particularly in clear water conditions. The fly features a sleek, streamlined design with a hint of sparkle or flash to subtly catch the light. The pulsing movement of the black mink body plus the stimulating flowing and eye catching movement of the marabou and flashabou tail make it a serious killer. Two to three short jerks followed by a steady retrieve, repeat and be ready for savage takes.

Grey Wulff

The Grey Wulff is a classic dry fly pattern that was first developed by American fly-fisherman Lee Wulff in the 1930s. The fly is designed to imitate the adult stage of the grey caddis, which is a type of caddisfly that is commonly found in the rivers and streams of North America. It is usually tied with grey or dark gray coloured deer hair for the body, which mimics the natural colour of the grey caddis. The fly is tied to be bushy, high floating and to remain visible into the evening twilight, to mimic the natural appearance of the grey caddis. The versatility and effectiveness of the Grey Wulff fly means it can be fished in a variety of water conditions, including rough water. It's also known for its ability to ride well on the surface of the water, which makes it an effective fly for targeting rising fish in fast water.

Green Snail

Snails can make a great fly fishing pattern, either in the mid-summer heat or at the heart of winter, as they are a staple food source for fish; ever noticed any snails in the stomach of a fish that you have caught? Why only fish flies and ignore a fish's staple diet? In the summer months, if you notice snails floating on the surface use a floating line and a long leader and watch the line for the take, usually a gentle draw. During the colder months when vegetation is scarce and trout are foraging for any available food source, the Green Snail becomes particularly effective. If nothing is working, try attaching a snail to a weighted sinking line to force the foam snail to sink down to the depths where the fish are also sitting. Snails can varying from lentil up to large pea in size.

Greenwell's Glory Wet

The Greenwell's Glory, originally tied and designed as a wet pattern in the 19th century, is the parent of the modern dry winged Greenweel's Glory. This wet fly pattern is used to imitate a wide variety of aquatic insects, such as mayflies, caddisflies, and stoneflies. As a wet fly, it makes a versatile pattern, so it can be fished during different times of the day, and at various depths of the water column, as well as in different water types.

Pheasant Tail

No flybox should be without the Pheasant Tail for it is one of the most successful patterns ever to float on a stream, brook or river. It's appearance suggests to the trout a wide range of appetizing food.

Bibio

This fly is great as a top dropper or a bob fly. Bobbing on the surface film, creating enough of a wake to attract the fish. It can also be twitched or pulled temptingly just under the surface with great success.

Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear

The Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear is arguably the most effective fly of all time. It is not an imitation of any particular insect but instead a general representation pattern that is hugely successful in taking fish. Whether tumbling down a feeding channel or gently retrieved in a still water this is a real killer. The scruffy, shaggy appearance of the Hare's Ear certainly appeals to both fly fishers and fish alike, so much so that if ever limited to one fly for the rest of their lives many anglers would choose the GRHE. It is an excellent grayling pattern that is without doubt a must have pattern in any fly box.

Peter Ross

The Peter Ross was created in the 1890s as a variant of the Teal & Red. It has over the last 120 years or so become one of the very best lough, lake, and stillwater fly patterns. It is equally well when fished as a single or as point on a team.

Black Midge Klinkhammer

The Black Midge Klinkhammer is one of the very successful and popular Klinkhammer series of flies that represent many emerging insect forms. The body penetrating the surface film is an exceptional trigger point as it gets seen by trout long before they see the surface footprint. This fly is ideal whenever midges or gnats are on the water.

Black Gnat Traditional

The Traditional Black Gnat has had a home in fly boxes for well over 100 years because it has proven to be successful right through the season. It is an imitation of a wide number of naturals. In spring, and again in autumn, black gnats can be seen swarming near the surface. Although the spring and autumn flies are not the same species, they are so similar that for angling purposes we can treat them as one. On rivers and streams, black gnat clouds are frequently dense over the slower sections. Mating pairs are particularly vulnerable in blustery weather and fall to the surface, where trout are only too pleased to consume them.

Troutbeck Beatle

I created this fly after bringing a beetle home and trying to tie an imitation. It took me quite a few attempts before I was satisfied with the density of the fly - density that was enough to represent the solid body. The following evening, as the beetles were again emerging, and the fish starting to rise, I put my "Beatle" on and cast out. Within seconds a fish rose to it. I struck and missed! Eventually I discovered that by waiting about 5 seconds before striking, I connected every time. What a sport! Those fish caught on the Troutbeck Beatle were all big fish.
