Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fly

from the Turrall Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fly Collection.

The Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fly is a classic choice for anglers targeting trout in UK waters. Originating in the early 20th century, this fly mimics terrestrial insects, particularly the Bibio marci, commonly known as the St. Mark's fly. Its design features a black body with a red or orange tag, complemented by soft black hackle, creating a lifelike movement in the water.
Key features include its barbless hook, promoting catch and release, and its versatility in various water conditions. Known for its effectiveness during spring and early summer, the Bibio is a must-have in any fly box, enticing trout with its realistic appearance and movement..

Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fishing Fly is best utilised in lochs and still waters, particularly effective during a hatch of black gnats or similar insects. To maximise effectiveness, employ a slow figure-of-eight retrieve, allowing the fly to mimic the natural movement of emerging insects. Present the fly on a floating line with a long leader to ensure a delicate presentation. Fish it in a team of flies, often as the top dropper, to cover different depths and increase chances of a strike. Overcast days with a slight ripple on the water surface are ideal conditions for using the Bibio.

Key Seasons - when is this

Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fly

most effective?
The Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and early summer months, particularly from April to June. This period coincides with the hatching of various aquatic insects, making it an ideal time to mimic emerging flies. The fly performs best in overcast conditions or when there's a light breeze, which can stir up the water and make trout more active. During these months, focus on fishing in rivers and streams where trout are likely to be feeding near the surface. The Bibio's dark, bushy profile is perfect for imitating the natural insects present during these key hatch periods.

How does the Turrall Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Bibio Wet Hackled Barbless Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the adult stage of the Bibio fly, commonly known as the Hawthorn fly. This fly is particularly effective during the spring and early summer months when these insects are abundant near water bodies. The Bibio fly emerges from the larval stage, and its adult form is characterised by a black body and distinctive legs, which the fishing fly replicates with its dark hackle and body.
Fish target these flies as they are a rich source of protein and often fall onto the water's surface, making them an easy meal for trout. The Bibio fly's erratic movement and visibility make it an irresistible target, ensuring anglers have a successful catch.
