Royal Wulff Dry Fly

The Royal Wulff Dry Fly is arguably one of the most famous and effective dry flies ever created, a variation of the original Royal Coachman pattern. Known for its incredible buoyancy and highly visible appearance, this attractor pattern does not specifically imitate a single insect but rather presents a "buggy" profile that fish consistently mistake for a large meal, whether it be a stonefly, a large mayfly, or an adult terrestrial. It is a true essential for fly anglers worldwide and a must-have in any fly box.

Product Features

  • Legendary Attractor: The distinct combination of white hair wings, peacock herl body, red floss band, and brown hackle creates a universally appealing silhouette that draws aggressive strikes.
  • Extreme Buoyancy: Built with durable hair wings and tails, and a robust body, the Royal Wulff floats high and proud like a cork, excelling in fast, turbulent pocket water and strong currents.
  • High Visibility: The bright white hair wings are easy to track on the water, even in challenging light conditions or broken currents.
  • Durable Construction: Expertly tied to withstand the beating of multiple fish and rough water.
  • Barbed Hook: Tied on a premium, sharp barbed hook for confident and secure hook-ups.
  • Optimal Sizing: Available in popular sizes #10, #12, #14, and #16, covering the ideal range for imitating most general large insects you will encounter.

When to Use the Royal Wulff Dry Fly

The Royal Wulff is a confidence fly that performs well in a wide range of conditions, particularly when prospecting or facing fast water.

  • Fast Water & Riffles: Its high-floating design makes it ideal for turbulent, oxygenated water where standard flies might sink too quickly.
  • Prospecting/Searching: When no specific hatch is occurring, the Royal Wulff is a top choice for covering water and actively searching for fish.
  • General Mayfly/Stonefly: While an attractor, it can pass as a large mayfly or small stonefly imitation during various hatches.
  • Dry-Dropper Rigs: Use a larger size (#10 or #12) as an excellent, high-visibility indicator fly when running a weighted nymph below it.
  • Mountain Streams & Rivers: A classic pattern for Western US and high-country streams where a sturdy, visible fly is often necessary.
HANDLE WITH CARE: Hooks are extremely sharp. Please handle with care to avoid injury.

NOTE: As these flies are hand-tied, slight variations in color and size may occur between batches.
