Yellow Owl CDC

The Yellow Owl CDC is a subtle yet deadly dry fly that excels when trout are rising confidently to small upwing patterns. Featuring the classic yellow owl body with the natural buoyancy and movement of CDC feathers, this fly sits beautifully in the surface film, imitating emerging duns and vulnerable insects.

It’s a proven pattern for rivers and stillwaters alike, ideal for tricky conditions where trout are selective and presentation matters most. Fished singly on fine tippet, the Yellow Owl CDC offers a lifelike, delicate profile that tempts even the wariest fish.

Part of the RJW Essentials Range, this fly delivers reliable performance at a budget-friendly price. Pre-tied and ready for immediate dispatch, it’s an essential addition to any dry fly selection.
