The down wing provides fish with a different silhouette than most attractor flies. It is a universal pattern that could be used everywhere.This fly is credited to Carter Harrison of Chicago, it is said he created it as a joke in 1906 at the Idaho Trude Ranch, using red yarn from a rug for the body and hair from a red spaniel for the wing. Nevertheless, the pattern became very successful later on.The Royal Coachman, in its three kinds (traditional, wet and streamer), set the bases for the ancient series of Royal flies that have left a strong mark on fly tiers from around the world for over a hundred years. The Trude is another fly that takes the body of the Coachman and adds some variations, like its down-wing that allows us to fish it dry or as a wet or streamer fly.Here are the tying instructions; it is a fly that can be used to fish in many different situations with great results.
