Barbless Daddy Long Legs Flies

. Expertly tied and highly effective, these distinctive flies are a go-to pattern for surface-feeding trout, particularly in late summer and autumn when natural crane flies are in abundance. Whether you're stalking stillwaters or drifting through rivers, these barbless trout flies provide realistic movement and profile that make trout strike with confidence.

Tied to exacting standards by Turrall, one of the UK’s most trusted names in fly tying, these flies mimic the long, spindly legs and buoyant body of the real insect. Their barbless design ensures safer handling and is ideal for catch-and-release fishing. Best used as a dry fly for trout, they perform particularly well on breezy days when Daddy Long Legs are blown onto the water’s surface. Try presenting them static or with a subtle twitch to imitate a struggling insect — both techniques can trigger explosive takes.
