The Generic Dun Selection

The Generic Dun Fly Selection - from Barbless Flies

These are the very best quality commercially tied flies available on the market today - all tied on AHREX FW503 barbless hooks - and are available to you directly (and only) from us. We cannot praise these flies highly enough - they are the best quality commercial flies we've ever seen - and we have over half a million flies pass through our doors every year - yes, they are that good!

During the late spring and early summer months, you must start to fish with smaller and more colour-representative flies. We have created this selection of generic dry flies which work exceptionally well on all UK waters.

Our Generic Dun Fly Selection consists of 4 patterns (sizes 14 to 16) all tied on AHREX FW503 barbless hooks, in the correct colours (and sizes) for imitating flies you would expect to see on UK rivers & stillwaters during the warmer months:

• Light Olive - Your workhorse. Large Dark Olive, Medium Olive, Pond Olive, Pale Watery. If something olive-ish is on the water, this is your starting point.
• Grey - Iron Blue Dun, Blue Winged Olive (the wings especially in flat light), Small Dark Olive. Cooler, cloudier days. Often the most underrated colour in the box.
• Rusty Brown - March Brown, Sepia Dun, Autumn Dun. Crosses into spinner territory too, which is a useful bonus later in the evening.
• Yellow - The Yellow May Dun, mostly. Heptagenia sulphurea if you want to impress someone on the bank. A pale, bright little thing that comes off limestone rivers and stillwater margins on warm summer evenings and makes you look far more knowledgeable than you actually are 😀.

We are supplying 2 of each of the above patterns in sizes 14 & 16 - 16 flies in total - all supplied in our eco-friendly packaging and delivered FREE of charge to anywhere within the UK.
