Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard Trout Fly

from the Turrall CDC Trout Fly Collection.

The Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard Trout Fly is a highly effective dry fly, renowned for its unique design and versatility in trout fishing. Originating from the UK, this fly combines the classic Hare's Ear nymph with the buoyant properties of Cul De Canard (CDC) feathers, creating a pattern that mimics emerging insects. The CDC feathers provide exceptional floatation, while the Hare's Ear dubbing adds a natural, buggy appearance, making it irresistible to trout.
Ideal for still waters and rivers, this fly excels in imitating hatching midges and mayflies. Its ability to sit low in the water surface film enhances its realism, enticing even the most cautious fish. The Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard is a must-have in any angler's fly box, offering reliability and success across various fishing conditions..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard Trout Fishing Fly is best used in stillwater and slow-moving rivers. To maximise effectiveness, present the fly with a floating line and a long leader to ensure a delicate presentation. Cast upstream or across the current, allowing the fly to drift naturally with minimal drag. Use a slow, steady retrieve or a series of gentle twitches to mimic an emerging insect. This fly is particularly effective during hatches, as its CDC wing and hare's ear body imitate emerging midges or mayflies. Adjust the depth by varying the leader length or adding a small split shot if needed.

Key Seasons - when is this

CDC Trout Fly

most effective?

The Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and autumn months. These seasons coincide with key hatch periods for many aquatic insects, making it an ideal time to mimic emerging flies. In spring, focus on late March to May, when the water warms and insect activity increases. Autumn, particularly September to early November, also sees significant hatches. This fly excels in calm, clear waters where trout are feeding near the surface. Overcast days with a slight breeze enhance its effectiveness, as trout are more likely to rise and feed actively.

How does the Turrall Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Shuttlecock Hair Ear Cul De Canard Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the emerging stage of a mayfly, specifically the dun stage. This fly features a buoyant design with CDC (Cul De Canard) feathers, which help it sit just below the water's surface, imitating the vulnerable moment when the mayfly nymph transitions to an adult. Fish target this stage because the emerging mayflies are easy prey, struggling to break free from their nymphal shuck. The fly's realistic appearance and movement make it irresistible to trout, who are keen to capitalize on this abundant food source during hatches.
