The Partridge & Yellow

The Partridge & Yellow Soft Hackle is a traditional wet fly pattern with origins in Northern England, dating back to the 18th century. This simple yet effective pattern was designed to imitate emerging insects, such as mayflies or midges, and has stood the test of time as a favorite for trout fishing. Its understated yellow body and partridge hackle create a natural appearance and lifelike movement, making it particularly effective in rivers and streams with active hatches.

Fish the Partridge & Yellow Soft Hackle with a dead drift or allow it to swing at the end of the drift to mimic an emerging insect. For best results, use it during hatches or as a general searching pattern in clear, shallow waters.
