Fishing Flies
Fario Fly - Black Shuttlecock CDC
The main food source of trout are buzzers/chronomids. When buzzers ascend from the lake bed to the water surface before hatching they almost always find themselves stuck in the surface film. During this time they are very vulnerable to feeding fish and often trout gorge themselves on such easy pickings. This minimalist representation of the black buzzer performs perfectly in such conditions and is often fished best singularly to rising or cruising fish. This fly has generous amounts of wild CDC in the wing which will ensure both great float-ability and visibility. The body is varnished and finished with a flex-floss rib to give a natural looking segmentation which ensures the surface film is cut and the fly is cocked.Hook- Dry Fly Size 14-12.Wing- 4-5 plumes of Wild Premium CDC feathers.Overall length- Approx 22-24mm.Body- Black thread with brown flexi rib (varnished)International Comp legal- Yes.

Fario Fly - Half Hog Bibio
Fario Fly - Yellow Owl
Often regarded as thee best stillwater dry fly in the UK and certainly one of the most popular the Yellow Owl is a shuttlecock style CDC. This fly was originally invented on the famous Loch Leven where it was used to catch buzzer feeding fish off the surface. The black rib over the light cahill thread gives the impression of a segmented body which fish are very attracted to. If fish are taking dry flies on the surface and you have any doubt as to which pattern to choose - the Yellow Owl is always a great starting point. Fished singularly - it is a fantastic emerger pattern for targeting cruising fish.
