Bibio Wet Hackled Trout Fly

from the Turrall Wet Hackled Trout Fly Collection.

The Bibio Wet Hackled Trout Fly is a classic choice for anglers targeting trout in both still and running waters. Originating in the UK, this fly has been a staple in fly boxes since the early 20th century. Its design features a black body with a red or orange tag, complemented by a bushy black hackle, mimicking terrestrial insects like beetles and midges.
Known for its versatility, the Bibio is effective in various conditions, particularly during overcast days when trout are more active near the surface. Its buoyant hackle ensures it sits enticingly in the water, making it irresistible to fish..

Bibio Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Bibio Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is best used in lochs and still waters, particularly effective during a hatch of black gnats or similar insects. Present the fly using a floating line with a long leader to allow for a natural drift. Cast across the wind to cover more water and let the fly swing around in the current. Use a slow, steady retrieve with occasional twitches to mimic the movement of an emerging insect. For best results, fish the Bibio in a team of wet flies, spaced about 3 feet apart, to increase the chances of attracting trout. Adjust the depth by varying the leader length or adding a small split shot if necessary.

Key Seasons - when is this

Wet Hackled Trout Fly

most effective?
The Bibio 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 hatching of various aquatic insects, making it an ideal time to mimic emerging flies. The fly performs best in overcast conditions or when there's a light breeze, which can stir up the water surface and attract trout. During these months, the Bibio is especially effective in lakes and slow-moving rivers where trout are actively feeding on surface insects. As the season progresses, it can also be used in late summer during cooler, cloudy days.

How does the Turrall Bibio Wet Hackled Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Bibio Wet Hackled Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the adult stage of the Bibio marci, commonly known as the St. Mark's fly. This fly is particularly effective during the spring when these insects are abundant. As the Bibio marci emerges, it becomes a prime target for trout due to its clumsy flight and tendency to fall onto the water's surface. The fly's dark body and red hackle imitate the insect's appearance and movement, enticing trout to strike. Fish target these flies because they are a rich source of protein and are often found in large numbers, making them an easy and rewarding meal.
