RJW Hairs Ear Smut

The Hare’s Ear Smut CDC is a subtle emerger pattern, ideal for imitating tiny midges and smuts just below the surface. Tied with natural Hare’s Ear dubbing, the slim, lightly textured body offers a lifelike silhouette, while a delicate mirage tag adds a hint of flash that can trigger strikes from selective trout. The CDC wing ensures the fly sits lightly in the surface film, giving it a natural and buoyant presentation. This pattern excels during summer midge hatches or whenever trout are feeding lightly on the surface.

This fly is part of the RJW Premium range, all hand-tied by me in Scotland using high-quality branded materials.
