Advantages and product highlights

This model also guarantees high visibility and regularly triggers superb surface strikes, where fish are often the wariest. Finally, this product is designed to entice wild trout, grayling and other salmonids.

Usage tips and recommended setups
To get the best from the Devaux Terrestrial Flies A517C, it is recommended to use a fine tippet (nylon or fluorocarbon 12 to 16/100 depending on required discretion) with sufficient length to ensure a natural drift. This model pairs ideally with a light rod with fast to medium action, for precise and discreet presentations. It is also advisable to vary the retrieves: very calm starts or slight twitches to imitate a prey that has accidentally fallen into the water. To optimize buoyancy, do not hesitate to apply a little dry-fly floatant. This model is successfully used in sight-fishing techniques or in 'surprise' fishing, approaching wooded banks or backwaters discreetly.
