Devaux Dry Flies 918, an absolute reference for demanding fly anglers, offer remarkable performance and a refined design recognized across all fishing beats. This timeless model, perfectly suited for river and reservoir fishing, stands out for its natural attractiveness and increased durability. Choosing Devaux 918 Dry Flies means opting for a highly technical product to maximize your catches year-round.

Technical specifications :

  • Hand-tied assembly following Devaux’s traditional know-how

  • Premium natural materials promoting flotation (selected feathers, specific dubbing)

  • High-strength forged hook for optimal hold in the fish’s mouth

  • Realistic silhouette, engineered to faithfully imitate surface mayflies

  • Compatible with all water types – rivers, streams and reservoirs



Benefits and key strengths :
- The Devaux 918 dry flies offer exceptional realism thanks to carefully selected natural materials and expert tying techniques inherited from French tradition.
- Their superior buoyancy allows them to remain on the surface for extended periods, even after multiple strikes, maximizing hookup opportunities.
- Resistant to wear and bite, they retain their effectiveness throughout fishing sessions and withstand even the most combative fish.
- Their discreet, well-studied profile appeals to all types of salmonids, making these flies ideal for clear waters where fish are highly wary.

Usage tips and recommended rigs :
To fully exploit the potential of the 918 dry flies, use a fine tippet to ensure the most natural presentation possible. Favor a tapered leader of approximately 3 meters. Linear or roll-cast techniques are recommended in cluttered spots. A light dressing of dubbing helps optimize buoyancy in difficult conditions. These flies perform particularly well on light-headed rigs, suitable for fast water and riffle zones.
