Dunkeld Wet Winged Trout Fly

from the Turrall Wet Winged Trout Fly Collection.

The Dunkeld Wet Winged Trout Fly, a classic in the angler's arsenal, boasts a rich history dating back to the 19th century in Scotland. Originally crafted for salmon fishing on the River Tay, it quickly gained popularity for its effectiveness in trout fishing. This fly's vibrant orange and black colour scheme, combined with its wet wing design, mimics the natural movement of aquatic insects, enticing even the most cautious trout.
Key features include its peacock herl body, golden pheasant tippet tail, and soft hen hackle, which create an irresistible underwater silhouette. Renowned for its versatility, the Dunkeld excels in both still and running waters, making it a must-have for any fly fishing enthusiast..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Dunkeld Wet Winged Trout Fishing Fly is best utilised in loch and river fishing, particularly effective during the early season when trout are feeding near the surface. To maximise its effectiveness, employ a slow, steady retrieve to mimic the natural movement of aquatic insects. Cast across and slightly downstream, allowing the fly to swing in the current, which can entice strikes from trout lying in wait. For presentation, use a floating line with a long leader to ensure the fly sits just below the surface. Vary the retrieve speed and incorporate occasional twitches to simulate a struggling insect, increasing the fly's appeal.

Key Seasons - when is this

Wet Winged Trout Fly

most effective?
The Dunkeld Wet Winged 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 sees trout preparing for winter, increasing their feeding activity, and the Dunkeld's vibrant colours can provoke aggressive strikes. Ideal conditions include overcast days with a slight breeze, which mimic natural insect activity. Avoid using it in bright, sunny conditions as it may appear unnatural to the fish.

How does the Turrall Dunkeld Wet Winged Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Dunkeld Wet Winged Trout Fishing Fly is designed to mimic the appearance and movement of emerging aquatic insects, particularly caddisflies. During the emergence stage, caddisflies transition from their pupal state to adult form, making them vulnerable and an easy target for trout. This fly imitates the fluttering and struggling motion of these insects as they break through the water's surface. Fish are drawn to this stage because the insects are abundant, rich in nutrients, and relatively defenseless, providing an irresistible meal for opportunistic trout.
