Cochybondhu | 3 Pack

A timeless beetle imitation for picky summer trout. This Cochybondhu (classic peacock body with rich, dark-red “coch y bonddu” hackle) throws a glossy beetle sheen and compact, low-riding footprint that draws confident sips along grassy banks and overhanging limbs.

• When it excels: Late spring through early fall; warm, breezy afternoons; tight to banks, undercuts, and overhanging vegetation
• Why it works: Peacock herl shimmer and dark, mahogany hackle mimic natural beetles; low profile sits in the film for a natural drift
• Pack size: 3 flies
• Targets: Trout (rainbow, brown, brook); also tempts stillwater cruisers
• Ready to fish: Durable wraps; consistent proportions for clean, repeatable drifts

How to fish it

Dead-drift tight to structure with short, accurate casts; add subtle micro-twitches to suggest a struggling beetle. Run it as a dry-dropper with 16–24" of light tippet to a small nymph or midge when fish aren’t fully on top.

Care

Rinse after use and air-dry before boxing. Refresh floatation with a dry powder/shake desiccant as needed.
