Notes: This dryfly is my favorite nr. 1. If someone asked me the famous question ”If you only could have one….” etc. It would be this. No question about that…! It is a sedge fly and I have been fishing with this all over Scandinavia and in Slovenia too. But especially in Sweden an Denmark, there are lots of Sedge flies on the water in the evenings. There are various species, but this one matches them all. Even if it sinks, this fly will catch fish.
