“The Alder Dry Fly”

Producer: Savage Flies

“The Alder wet fly has been around for centuries. It appeared in Mary Orvis Marbury’s “Favorite Flies” of 1892, and was likely one of the patterns mentioned in Dame Julianna Berners’ “A Treatise of Fishing with an Angle” from 1496. However, the dry fly version of the pattern is rarely tied. Which is a shame as the pattern could certainly be an effective trout fly.”
