The Red Tag Double Trout Fly, a classic in the angler's arsenal, originated in the 19th century and remains a favourite for targeting trout.

This fly is particularly effective in both still and running waters, mimicking natural prey and triggering aggressive strikes.
Known for its versatility, the Red Tag excels in various conditions, from clear streams to murky lakes. Its enduring popularity is a testament to its effectiveness, making it a must-have for any fly fishing enthusiast seeking success on the water..

Red Tag Double Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Red Tag Double Trout Fishing Fly is highly effective when used in both still and moving waters. For optimal results, employ a dead-drift presentation in rivers, allowing the fly to float naturally with the current. In still waters, use a slow figure-of-eight retrieve to mimic the movement of natural prey. This fly is particularly effective during hatches, as its red tag and bushy hackle attract trout by imitating emerging insects. To maximise effectiveness, fish it on a floating line with a long leader, and consider using it as a dropper fly in a team of two or three flies to cover different water depths and increase your chances of a strike.

Key Seasons - when is this

Double Trout Fly

most effective?
The Red Tag Double Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during the spring and autumn months when trout are actively feeding. In spring, as the water warms, hatches of insects like mayflies and caddisflies occur, making this fly particularly enticing. Autumn is another prime time, as trout prepare for winter and are more aggressive in their feeding. The fly works best in clear, flowing waters where trout can easily spot it. Overcast days with a slight breeze enhance its effectiveness, as the fly mimics the natural movement of insects on the water's surface.

How does the Turrall Red Tag Double Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Red Tag Double Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the emerging stage of a caddisfly, a crucial part of a trout's diet. As caddisflies transition from larvae to adults, they become vulnerable, making them an easy target for fish. This fly imitates the buoyant and erratic movement of the emerging caddisfly, with its red tag acting as an attractor, resembling the natural colouration seen during this stage. Fish are drawn to this fly due to its realistic appearance and movement, which signal an easy meal, thus making it highly effective in enticing strikes from trout.
