Sawyer's Killer Bug

The Sawyer's Killer Bug - from Barbless Flies

A deadly bug created and developed by Frank Sawyer specifically to catch grayling (as a means to control their numbers on the River Avon in Wiltshire). The fly was originally named by his friend, Lee Wulff, after him. It’s a general impressionistic dressing that could be taken to imitate a shrimp, larva, pupa or hatching sedge.

These flies are tied with a copper wire body, then overwrapped with a Chadwicks 477 style yarn. 

These flies are only available individually in sizes 12, 14, 16 & 18. Just click on "add to cart" and then adjust the quantity in your cart.
