About the Teal and Black Trout Fly

This is an excellent variant of the Teal and Red that worked well for both Brown Trout and Sea Trout on the rivers of Devon. Also a first class lake fly, as is the similar 'Peter Ross' (1873 - 1923)

Expert Tip:

God grant that I may live To fish until my dying day And when it comes to my last cast I then most humbly pray When in the Lord's safe landing net I'm peacefully asleep That in his mercy I be judged As good enough to keep.
