Shuttlecock Olive Cul De Canard Trout Fly

from the Turrall CDC Trout Fly Collection.

The Shuttlecock Olive Cul De Canard Trout Fly is a highly effective dry fly, renowned for its ability to mimic emerging insects on the water's surface. Originating in the UK, this fly utilises cul de canard (CDC) feathers, known for their natural buoyancy and lifelike movement. The CDC feathers, combined with a delicate olive body, make it irresistible to trout, especially during hatches of olive duns.
Key features include its lightweight design and realistic profile, which ensure it sits perfectly in the surface film, enticing even the most cautious fish. Ideal for still waters and rivers, this fly is a must-have for any angler's collection, offering consistent success in various fishing conditions..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Shuttlecock Olive Cul De Canard Trout Fishing Fly is best used in still or slow-moving waters where trout are feeding on emerging insects. To maximise effectiveness, present the fly with a delicate cast to avoid spooking fish. Use a floating line and a long, fine leader to ensure a natural drift. The fly should sit in the surface film, imitating an emerging insect. Employ a static presentation or a very slow figure-of-eight retrieve to mimic the natural movement of an emerging fly. Pay attention to subtle takes, as trout may sip the fly gently. Adjust tactics based on fish activity and water conditions.

Key Seasons - when is this

CDC Trout Fly

most effective?
The Shuttlecock Olive Cul De Canard Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and autumn months, aligning with the key hatches of olives. In spring, from March to May, and in autumn, from September to October, these flies mimic emerging olives, making them irresistible to trout. Ideal conditions include overcast days with mild temperatures, as these promote active hatches. During these periods, focus on fishing in slow-moving waters or near the surface where trout are likely to be feeding on emerging insects. Adjust your approach based on water clarity and insect activity for optimal results.

How does the Turrall Shuttlecock Olive Cul De Canard Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Shuttlecock Olive Cul De Canard Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the emerging stage of the Baetis nymph, commonly known as the Blue-Winged Olive. This fly represents the moment when the nymph rises to the water's surface to hatch into a dun. The CDC (Cul De Canard) feathers give the fly buoyancy, allowing it to sit in the surface film, perfectly imitating the vulnerable emerging insect. Trout target this stage as the nymphs are momentarily trapped and unable to escape, making them an easy and nutritious meal. The realistic presentation of this fly makes it highly effective in enticing strikes from feeding fish.
