Salmon Fishing Rod

Trout Flies - Quality English Trout Flies

John Gay in Rural Sports, 1720

Around the steel no tortur'd worm shall twine, No blood of living insect stain my line; Le me, less cruel, cast feathered hook, With pliant rod athwart the pebbled brook, Silent along the mazy margin stray, And with fur-wrought fly delude the pray.

We spend hundreds or even thousands of pounds on fishing equipment. A quick look in the fishing cupboards reveals brands like Hardy, Orvis, Loop and Sage. Our equipment comprises or small 7' 3" brook rods with 3 or 4 weight lines and a delicate CDC Grey Klinkhammer, 9' or 10' rods for larger rivers with 7 weight lines casting a large bead headed woolly bugger attracting the hungry Rainbow trout hunting for small fish through to large rods capable of casting lure.

For all the money we spend however on rods, reels, lines, bags, waders, clothing and other equipment the most important area to spend money  is the last 9 feet of our equipment, a good braided or tapered leader capable of turning over our fly is critical and  of course the magic comes in the last few inches, that fly that will tempt the wariest natural Brown Trout sat near a tree feeding cautiously. Our fly needs to be good quality and match the hatch (as well of course having been cast well, we cannot help with that!).

Trout Wet Flies

We have a full range of wet trout flies and our selection includes bead trout heads also known as gold head trout flies, hackled wet trout flies, traditional yorkshire spider trout flies and winged wet trout flies.

Trout Buzzers & Nymphs

Our extensive range of buzzers and nymphs will help you when the trout are feeding below the surface. Our selection includes buzzers, corixas, Hare's Ear Trout Flies and Flashback Hare's Ear Trout Flies, Montana and Stoneflies, Pheasant Tail Nymphs, Polish Woven Nymps, Sedge Larva Pupa and specials including freshwater Shrimps.

Trout Dry Flies and Trout Emerger Flies

Nothing is quite as exciting as watching the perfect cast drop a fly to where a hungry trout is feeding. To help we have a full range of dry trout flies including Bristol Hopper Trout Flies, Caddis Trout Flies, Cranefly and Damsel flies, great for the hungry summer trout, Dapping flies, Emergers and suspenders, hackled dry flies, Humpys and Irrisistables, Mayflies, Midges and probably one of the greatest flies ever invented, the Klinkhammer with other parachute flies and thorax flies plus the terrestrials like the humble ant and grasshopper.

Trout Lures

Lures are often needed, especially in lakes where a hungry Rainbor trout chases minnows and small fry. Our range covers all of the essentials, booby flies, egg flies, epoxy minows, fritz lures, woolly buggers, muddlers, streamers, disco flies and zonkers.
