March Brown Spinner

No comments yet

If you only need one spinner pattern to have in your dryfly box, this is the one!. We have had the skilled flytyer and flyfisher Henry Ramsay in the studio to demonstrate his all-time favorite pattern for when the trout are feeding on the hatched mayflies that are in their final stage of life - the spent spinner. Henry ties this one in multiple colors and sizes from the smallest tricos to the biggest hexagenias.

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
