About the Detached Daddy Blue Trout Fly

The detached style body is excellent for use with mayflies and Daddies. This Daddy variant is a good all-rounder, as its colour lends itself well to an adult damsel imitation.

Expert Tip:

It must be abundantly evident that the fly should drop as lighty as possible on the water,and that an awkward unmannerly 'splash' must inevitably mar the illusion. Alfred Ronald 1856
