Loch Ordie Wet Fly

The Loch Ordie wet fly is a traditional Scottish pattern designed for fishing in lochs and still waters. It features a distinctive body made from peacock herl, giving it an iridescent, dark green sheen that imitates various aquatic insects. The fly is tied with multiple hackles—often brown, ginger, and grizzle—wound along the length of the body, creating a bushy appearance that provides excellent movement in the water. The wing is typically made from mallard or teal feathers, tied flat over the body. This fly is known for its versatility and effectiveness in attracting trout, particularly in rough or windy conditions on large bodies of water. The Loch Ordie is often fished in a team of flies, where its lively action can provoke aggressive strikes.
