La Loue - Rose Champagne Fly
This is Gerard de Chamberet’s La Loue or what was first called Le Rose. It was in a series of grayling flies called La Loue which later just became the name of this pattern. While de Chamberet was a fly imitationist he did have a lively spirit and was very imaginative AND must have like rose Champagne (who doesn’t?!).
Hook: 16 or 18 dry fly hook
Body: quill dyed rose champagne
Hackle: rooster dyed rose champagne tied “spider style”
Tail: white rooster hackle fibers
Head: black

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.
