About the Yellow Widgeon Mayfly Trout Fly

Great store is made of the principles of blending colours of body fur and hackle to produce a broken, muted fly that provides a soft overall effect. Single colours and hard outlines are used but rarely. Generally the flies are constructed from purely natural, high quality materials,although these are sometimes blended with modern reflective materials where this adds to the attractive potential of the fly.
