About the Alexandra Trout Fly
The Alexandra, or Lady of the Lake, as it was then called, was introduced some time around 1860. It was re-named in honour of Princess Alexandra.
It was such a popular and successful pattern that its use was literally banned on some waters.
If it regained its popularity it would prove to be a very successful fly, as it still does to a few in the know!
