Originating in the UK, this fly has been a favourite since the early 20th century, crafted to perfection with a delicate balance of buoyancy and realism.

Key features include its realistic silhouette and subtle colouration, which closely resemble the Ephemera danica, a common mayfly species. The Special European No. 30 is particularly effective during the mayfly hatch season, drawing in even the most cautious trout. Its proven track record and historical significance make it a must-have in any angler's fly box, ensuring successful catches and memorable fishing experiences..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Special European No. 30 Mayfly Trout Fishing Fly is best utilised during the mayfly hatch, mimicking the natural emergence of mayflies. For effective presentation, use a floating line with a long leader to ensure a delicate landing. Cast upstream and allow the fly to drift naturally with the current, maintaining a drag-free drift. Employ the "Leisenring Lift" technique by gently raising the rod tip as the fly approaches the end of the drift to simulate an emerging insect. For retrieves, use slow, short strips to mimic a struggling mayfly. Fish in areas with overhanging vegetation or near riffles where trout are likely to be feeding.

Key Seasons - when is this

Dry May Trout Fly

most effective?
The Special European No. 30 Mayfly Trout Fishing Fly is most effective during late spring to early summer, particularly from May to June. This period coincides with the mayfly hatch, a prime time for trout feeding. The fly excels in clear, slow-moving waters where mayflies are abundant. Optimal conditions include warm, overcast days with a slight breeze, which encourages mayfly activity and surface feeding by trout. During these months, the fly's realistic design and movement can entice even the most selective trout, making it a must-have in your tackle box.

How does the Turrall Special European No. 30 Mayfly Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Special European No. 30 Mayfly Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the delicate and enticing stage of the mayfly's emergence. This fly represents the subimago stage, where the mayfly transitions from nymph to adult, a critical moment when it is most vulnerable. During this stage, the mayfly struggles to break free from its nymphal shuck, floating on the water's surface, making it an easy target for trout. Fish are particularly drawn to this stage due to the abundance and ease of capture, providing a rich source of nutrition. The fly's realistic design and movement effectively attract trout, capitalising on their instinctual feeding behaviour.
