Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fly

from the Turrall Nymph Damsel Trout Fly Collection.

The Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fly is a renowned choice among anglers, celebrated for its effectiveness in enticing trout. Originating in the UK, this fly mimics the natural movement and appearance of a damsel nymph, a favourite prey for trout. Its olive hue and marabou tail create lifelike motion in the water, making it irresistible to fish.
Key features include a bead head for added weight, ensuring it sinks to the desired depth quickly, and a bushy body that enhances its visibility. This fly is particularly effective in still waters and during the summer months when damsel nymphs are most active. Perfect for both novice and seasoned anglers, the Olive Fritz Damsel is a must-have in any fly box..

Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fishing Fly is highly effective when used in stillwater environments, particularly during the warmer months when damsel nymphs are active. To maximise its effectiveness, employ a slow, steady retrieve to mimic the natural swimming action of a damsel nymph. Use a floating or intermediate line to keep the fly in the upper water column where trout are likely to be feeding.
For presentation, cast near weed beds or structures where damsel nymphs are commonly found. Allow the fly to sink slightly before starting the retrieve. Vary the speed and add occasional pauses to imitate the erratic movement of a live nymph, enticing strikes from nearby trout.

Key Seasons - when is this

Nymph Damsel Trout Fly

most effective?

The Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during late spring to early autumn, particularly from May to September. This period coincides with the peak of the damsel fly hatch, making it an ideal time to mimic the natural prey of trout. The fly works best in warm, sunny conditions when damsel flies are most active near the water's surface. During these months, focus on fishing in stillwaters like lakes and reservoirs where damsel flies are abundant. Early mornings and late afternoons are prime times, as trout are more likely to be feeding actively.

How does the Turrall Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Olive Fritz Damsel Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the nymph stage of the damselfly, a crucial part of a trout's diet. This fly imitates the slender, elongated body and vibrant olive hues of the damselfly nymph, which is commonly found in still waters and slow-moving streams.
During the nymph stage, damselflies are highly active and vulnerable, making them an easy target for trout. Fish are particularly drawn to these nymphs due to their abundance and nutritional value, especially during the warmer months when damselflies are most prevalent. The Olive Fritz Damsel's lifelike movement and colouration make it an irresistible lure for hungry trout.
