Originating in the 19th century, this fly has a rich history, often attributed to the innovative fly-tying techniques of the time. Its vibrant red body, combined with a bushy hackle, mimics the movement of aquatic insects, making it irresistible to fish.
Key features include its striking red wool body and palmered hackle, which create a lifelike appearance and enticing movement in the water. Ideal for both still and moving waters, the Red Palmer is a must-have in any angler's fly box, promising success with its proven track record..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Red Palmer Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is best used in river and stream environments where trout are actively feeding. To maximise effectiveness, employ a downstream and across presentation, allowing the fly to swing naturally in the current. This technique mimics an emerging insect, enticing strikes from trout. Use a slow, steady retrieve to maintain the fly's natural appearance, occasionally adding short, sharp twitches to simulate a struggling insect. For deeper pools, allow the fly to sink before starting the retrieve, ensuring it moves through different water columns to attract fish at various depths.

Key Seasons - when is this

Wet Hackled Trout Fly

most effective?
The Red Palmer Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and autumn months when trout are actively feeding. In spring, as the water warms, insect hatches become more frequent, making this fly ideal for imitating emerging insects. During autumn, trout feed aggressively to prepare for winter, providing another prime opportunity. The fly excels in overcast conditions or slightly murky waters, where its vibrant colours stand out. Use it during mayfly and caddisfly hatch periods for optimal results, as these are key times when trout are on the lookout for similar prey.

How does the Turrall Red Palmer Wet Hackled Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Red Palmer Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the appearance and movement of aquatic insects, particularly caddisflies or mayflies, during their nymph or emerging stages. These insects are a crucial part of a trout's diet, especially when they are transitioning from water to air. The fly's hackled body and vibrant red colour imitate the natural shimmer and movement of these insects as they struggle to break through the water's surface. Fish target this stage because the insects are vulnerable and abundant, providing an easy and nutritious meal. The fly's design effectively triggers the predatory instincts of trout, making it a popular choice among anglers.
