Fly Tying The BEST Dry Fly for Trout?

This video is about fly tying for trout, the best dryfly for Trout? We will show you how to tie the ugly fly. This pattern is originally designed by one of the very best French fly fishermen, especially for big wild trout in the Jura region in France. These wild and educated fish are some of the hardest fish to catch on a fly rod! It has been used all over the world now and with great succes. If I could only bring one dryfly with me to the river this will be the one for sure. We will also show you how you can easily make your own dubbing that we need for this pattern.

Hope you enjoy this video and please subscribe to our channel!

Looking for advice concerning value of a vintage collection of hand tied and autographed flies by lee Wulff. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated for information sources.

Awesome quality tutorials! I love buggy flies. I would fish that with & without the wing too. I don't fish dry flies too often, my most productive patterns are the Usual (pulled under the surface too 👍 especially by structure in faster currents) and a varient of Tom Rosenbauer's snowshoe emerger that I tied subbing peacock sword for the shuck and grizzly hackle for the cdc, I had no idea what cdc was at the time nor what colors matched the specific mayfly hatches. The only curved hooks I had were bait hooks so I used an Eagle Claw model 042 (similar to Mustad C49) This was in the late 80's, I believe, when I really got into tying.
Anyway what makes that Darrell Martin hook your favorite? Does that "curve" make it sit different on the surface?
Also the "hare" pelt you use, English like the "mask"? I think they're a different specie then the cottontail pelts I have from hunting but I should be able to use mine. Thanks for the two tutorials I just watched. Both were very professional and informative. Wish YouTube was around 35 years ago, learning would have been easier! 👍😎

Instead of hare fur, could you use Awesome Possum dubbing?
