The Deer Hair Spinner Dry Fly is a refined, technical pattern built for difficult spinner falls when trout demand a precise silhouette and natural presentation.

Tied with a slim, lightly segmented body and supported by buoyant deer hair and sparse hackle, this fly sits perfectly in the surface film — just like a real spent mayfly. Its understated profile, fine tail fibres, and soft hackle collar create a convincing footprint on smooth water, making it deadly on rivers, spring creeks, and tailwaters.

This is a fly for calm evenings, glassy runs, and educated trout — when splashy dries are ignored and only subtle realism will do.

Key Features

• Realistic spinner / spent mayfly profile
• Buoyant deer hair construction for reliable floatation
• Slim, lightly segmented body for a natural silhouette
• Fine tail fibres to stabilise drift
• Sits low in the surface film – ideal for selective trout
• Hand-tied for consistency and durability

When to Use

• Evening spinner falls
• Calm or slow-moving water
• Flat pools, tailouts, and spring creeks
• When trout refuse high-floating dry flies
