Description

The Dirty Politician was the name given to a fly pattern by Kurt Finlayson after a local Utah politician lied to his daughter’s face about voting on a bill to remove angler’s rights to access water. It’s a fly that was developed in Utah, but has produced results the world over, including the streams of New South Wales and Victoria. Grant’s version of this flies uses quality materials and hooks sourced from the shop here at Troutlore, so you can be assured it will deliver it looks, and quality. This fly has landed me plenty of fish this season already, and a good number of trees, too!

  • Tied with quality barbless hooks
  • Tungsten bead head for a fast sink rate
  • Now sold as single units per hook size. Buy as few or as many as you like!

Of course, if you want to tie this pattern yourself, Troutlore offers all the quality materials for this pattern.
