Green Peter Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

from the Turrall Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly Collection.

The Green Peter Caddis, a classic trout fly, is renowned for its effectiveness in luring trout, especially in the UK and Ireland. Originating in the 19th century, this fly mimics the caddisfly, a staple in trout diets. Its design features a bushy hackle, green body, and brown wings, creating a lifelike appearance that triggers aggressive strikes from trout. The fly's buoyancy allows it to float enticingly on the water's surface, making it ideal for both still and moving waters. Anglers appreciate its versatility and reliability, often considering it a must-have in their fly box for successful fishing trips..

Green Peter Caddis / Sedge Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Green Peter Caddis/Sedge is best used during late summer evenings when caddisflies are most active. To maximise effectiveness, employ a floating line with a long leader. Cast upstream or across the current, allowing the fly to drift naturally. Use a "dead drift" presentation, ensuring the fly moves at the same pace as the water. For added attraction, incorporate a "twitch" retrieve by gently lifting the rod tip to mimic the natural movement of an emerging caddis. In still waters, a slow figure-of-eight retrieve can be effective. Fish near weed beds or under overhanging trees where trout are likely to be feeding.

Key Seasons - when is this

Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

most effective?
The Green Peter Caddis is most effective during late spring to early autumn, particularly from May to September. This period aligns with the peak caddisfly hatches, making it an ideal time for trout fishing. The fly excels in the evening when caddisflies are most active, especially during warm, overcast days with a gentle breeze. These conditions mimic the natural environment where caddisflies thrive, increasing the fly's effectiveness. For best results, use the Green Peter Caddis in rivers and lakes with abundant vegetation, where trout are likely to be feeding on emerging caddisflies.

How does the Turrall Green Peter Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Green Peter Caddis fly mimics the adult stage of the caddisfly, a crucial part of a trout's diet. During the summer months, caddisflies emerge from their pupal cases, rising to the water's surface to become adults. This emergence is a vulnerable time, making them an easy target for trout. The Green Peter's design, with its bushy hackle and green body, effectively imitates the fluttering movement and appearance of the adult caddisfly. Trout are drawn to this fly due to the abundance of caddisflies during hatches, providing a rich and accessible food source.
