About the Black Zulu Trout Fly

The Zulu is a very old pattern, whose pedigree has been lost through the passage of time.

It is very successful and has proved to be an excellent international killer of trout.

Expert Tip:

The 'Blood Knot' is an excellent knot for joining lengths of nylon, for example tippet to leader.

The Zulu makes a good fly on Loch Earn, where Brown Trout and Rainbows are stocked.
