Sea trout flies

Salmon flies

Malcolm Edwards was a well known sea trout angler from the River Rheidol near Aberystwyth in Wales, UK. Arguably he caught more double figure sea trout / sewin than anyone else in Wales and the UK. He kept things simple and fished just two flies, with this being his second pattern and the one he fished after July and until the end of the season.

The Idiot

The Idiot - or 'Idioten' in Danish - is another typical Danish sea trout pattern. The story of this fly is quite well known and documented. A team of Danish fly fishers including Erik Døssing were fishing in Norway when one of the company stated that he had never caught a sea trout on fly in the stream Karup Aa - probably Denmark's most productive and famous sea trout stream.

Orange Twist

This fly used to be a twist fly like the yellow Twist of Lemon, but it changed and eventually lost the typical twisted body. It has a normal tinsel body and a thorax of peacock herl, but looks much like the Twist of Lemon.

But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
