Flies For All Season - The Lite - Brite Hedgehog
Total FlyFisher
|October 2017
Richard Garbett brings you a dry that floats all day and the trout find hard to resist… the Lite-Brite Hedgehog.
The Hedgehog, Sedgehog and similar deer-hair winged flies have been very popular on the river and still water scenes for some time. They have many great attributes: they are very easy to tie; look an attractive, meaty meal to the trout; are very durable and, best of all (to me anyway), they’ll float all day with no floatant, providing you keep them free of fish slime!
It’s unusual when I’m fishing dry patterns to keep the same fly on the cast all day (providing the fish are still wanting it) because they start to refuse to float or become shredded to an unrecognisable few wisps of nothingness. In fact, the more the Hedgehog gets ravaged by the trout’s teeth, the better it gets!
