Description

The Willow Grub is just one of those all or nothing flies that has to be used in certain situations when it heats up over summer. When the fish are keyed into the grubs falling from the willow trees, there is very little you can do to convince them to look at anything else. So, have a handful of these in your fly box could mean the difference between a disappointment and a memorable day on the water. They may be one of the simplest flies to tie, but they are certainly one of the most engaging to fish. If you’re fishing willow lines streams, or any of the bigger rivers like the Goulburn, Mitta or Tumut over summer, you need some willow grubs on hand just in case.

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 a complete materials kit for this pattern. You can find the ‘TieYourOwn’ kit for Elk & Foam Stimulator here.

All flies sold at Troutlore are tied by hand in Australia by Rob from Troutlore, or designated tyers for specific patterns who are noted in the descriptions. The Willow Grub pattern is tied on quality Ahrex hooks and using the best materials, this is a great addition to any fly box for those essential moments in summer fishing.
