Wulff

Wulff Dry Fly

The Wulff series is among the most enduring attractor dry flies in fly fishing. Originally developed by Lee Wulff, these patterns combine a full hair wing, heavily hackled collar, and distinctive body colors to create flies that float high, show well, and trigger strikes even when no hatch is present. Whether you're searching unfamiliar water, fishing fast freestone streams, or covering pocket water, there's a Wulff for the conditions.

Available in five proven colorways — Royal, Black, Red, White, and Grey — each variation offers a different visual profile to match light conditions, water clarity, and angler preference.

Color Guide

• Royal: Peacock herl body with red floss band — the most iconic attractor in the series; irresistible in any water
• Black: Dark, high-contrast silhouette — excellent in bright conditions and on heavily pressured water
• Red: Warm, visible body — a strong searching pattern on freestone rivers and mountain streams
• White: Maximum visibility in low-light conditions, overcast skies, and fast broken water
• Grey: Subtle, natural profile — effective when fish are selective or water is clear and calm
