Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fly

from the Turrall Wet Hackled Trout Fly Collection.

The Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fly, a classic in the angler's arsenal, was developed in the mid-20th century by Major Charles E. Keene and Mr. H. E. Wood. This fly is renowned for its effectiveness in imitating small aquatic insects, making it a staple for trout fishing.
Key features include its soft hackle, which provides lifelike movement in the water, and its vibrant body, often tied with peacock herl or similar materials, to attract fish. The Ke-He excels in both still and moving waters, proving its versatility and reliability. Its design ensures it remains a favourite among fly fishers seeking consistent results..

Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is best used in rivers and streams where trout are actively feeding. To maximise effectiveness, cast upstream and allow the fly to drift naturally with the current, mimicking an emerging insect. Use a dead-drift presentation, ensuring the fly moves at the same speed as the water. Employ a slow, steady retrieve with occasional twitches to imitate a struggling insect. This fly is particularly effective during hatches, so match the hatch for best results. Fish it on a floating line with a long leader to maintain a natural presentation.

Key Seasons - when is this

Wet Hackled Trout Fly

most effective?

The Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and early summer months, particularly from April to June. This period coincides with the prolific hatches of mayflies and caddisflies, which are key food sources for trout. The fly excels in overcast conditions or when the water is slightly stained, as its subtle movement and natural appearance can entice trout feeding just below the surface. During these months, focus on fishing in rivers and streams where insect activity is high, ensuring your fly mimics the emerging insects that trout are actively targeting.

How does the Turrall Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Ke-He Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the emerging stage of aquatic insects, particularly caddisflies. As these insects transition from larvae to adults, they become vulnerable and are often found struggling just below the water's surface. This fly imitates the movement and appearance of these emergent insects, making it an irresistible target for trout. Fish are drawn to this stage because the insects are abundant, easy to catch, and provide a rich source of nutrition. The Ke-He Fly's design, with its soft hackle and subtle colours, effectively replicates the natural behaviour and appearance of these emergent insects, enticing fish to strike.
