About the Simple Simon Trout Fly
General purpose fly, works often when there are no naturals on the water.
A hybrid of a Coch-y-bondhu and a Coachman
Expert Tip:
If the all ruling Power please
We live to see another May,
We'll recompense an Age of these
Foul days in one fine fishing day.
We then shall have a day or two,
Perhaps a week, wherein to try,
What the best Masters' hand can do
With the most deadly killing fly.
