Caledonia Red Francis Nordic Double
Caledonia Red Francis Nordic Double
← PREVIOUSThis Red Francis Nordic double is a summer special for Grilse, it will fish all day and into the dusky evenings. Clearwater of any height. Designed and popularized by Englishman Peter Deane this odd looking creation has had meteoric success in Iceland and has been doing extremely well in our river systems. It was named after his fly tying assistant Miss Frances Hoydon and has been a success story ever since. Red and Black are the most popular pattern colours, but we have had to bring them out in other colours due to their popularity with anglers, this can mean only one thing the fly is deadly.
Tied on Nordic style double hooks, down-eyed, short shank for extra strength and improved hooking. Ideal for modern hair wing patterns.
