The Griffiths Gnat Dry Fly is a very versatile pattern even though it does not have the 'traditional' shape of most other dry flies. It is extremely effective when small buzzers or Caenis are on the water and is often fished in very small sizes on very light leaders. Its success is down to the use of that very versatile material, Peacock Herl, in the body with a reverse palmer of well marked Badger Hackle wound down the body. This gives a very stark profile to the fly which, as a result, ensures that the pattern can be seen in most light conditions by the Trout. The Griffiths Gnat is a fantastic fly both for river fishing and on stillwaters and Lochs.
