Blue Dun Double Trout Fly

from the Turrall Double Trout Fly Collection.

The Blue Dun Double Trout Fly is a classic choice for anglers seeking success in both rivers and still waters. Originating in the UK, this fly has been a staple in fly boxes since the 19th century, renowned for its ability to mimic the natural appearance of emerging mayflies. Its key features include a delicate blue-grey hackle and a slender body, which effectively imitate the subtle hues of the natural insect. The design ensures excellent buoyancy and a realistic presentation, making it irresistible to trout. Known for its versatility, the Blue Dun is effective throughout the fishing season, particularly during mayfly hatches..

Blue Dun Double Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Blue Dun Double Trout Fishing Fly is best used in clear, slow-moving waters where trout are feeding on the surface. To maximise effectiveness, present the fly using a delicate cast to avoid spooking the fish. Allow the fly to drift naturally with the current, mimicking the movement of emerging insects. Use a floating line and a long, fine leader to enhance presentation.
For retrieves, employ a slow, steady hand-twist retrieve to simulate a struggling insect. Vary the speed slightly to trigger strikes. Tactics include targeting areas with overhanging vegetation or near submerged structures where trout are likely to be hiding. Adjust your approach based on water conditions and trout activity.

Key Seasons - when is this

Double Trout Fly

most effective?

The Blue Dun Double Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and autumn months when the natural hatches of blue-winged olives occur. In spring, from March to May, and in autumn, from September to November, these flies mimic the emerging duns that trout feed on eagerly.
Ideal conditions include overcast days with a slight breeze, which encourages hatches and keeps the fly on the water's surface longer. During these periods, the Blue Dun excels in both rivers and still waters, particularly when trout are rising to feed on surface insects.

How does the Turrall Blue Dun Double Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Blue Dun Double trout fishing fly is designed to imitate the delicate and enticing stage of a mayfly's lifecycle, specifically the subimago or "dun" stage. This stage occurs when the mayfly emerges from the water as a winged adult, a critical moment that trout eagerly anticipate. The fly's subtle blue-grey hues and soft hackles mimic the natural appearance and movement of the mayfly as it rests on the water's surface, drying its wings. Trout target this stage because the duns are vulnerable and abundant, providing an easy and nutritious meal. The Blue Dun Double's realistic presentation makes it a favourite among anglers seeking to entice selective fish.
