The Irish Gold & Partridge Wet Fly

0 No tags Permalink

The Irish Gold & Partridge wet fly is tied in a minimalist style and is a superb pattern for river fishing. I remembered this model while I was in the workshop mixing and painting some dubbings, and I was thrilled to recreate this color.

I received it many years ago from an Irish friend who generously sent me a bag of it. Now that the color has finally come out for me, I eagerly tied this fly to see how it turns out.

Sometimes I make it palmered with English partridge and French partridge. Tied in this way, this fly is deadly when used on sunny days in deep, dark lakes. Finally, I can add this model, which I particularly love, to my collection of wet flies.
