It has proved to be a ‘must have’ fly on most Scottish still water trout fisheries. As is always the case it has spawned the usual derivatives, Black Dancer , Orange Dancer, and I expect in the fullness of time we will have the Highland Dancer. I had to resort to my favourite fishing magazine , Fly Fishing and Fly Tying to get the dressing. It is a straight forward tie if you do the proper preparation.

The Dressing

  • Hook -- Kamasan 175 or similar , sizes 8 / 10.
  • Tail -- White marabou with a few strands of pearlescent micro flash.
  • Body -- Rainbow flashabou or similar.
  • Rib -- Fine gold oval.
  • Hackle -- Long yellow cock palmered.
  • Head -- Gold bead to suit hook size.
