Trout Fly Fishing Tips and Tools

CDC Feathers

CDC (Cul de Canard) are from the feathers that sit above a duck's preen glands and have a natural oil to help keep them waterproof while the duck is in the water. These feathers add a very natural life-like movement to any fly pattern and are becoming extremely popular for various emerger and dun patterns. CDC feathers are available in both natural and dyed colors.

May Fly™ Magnetic Net Release

The May Fly™ Magnetic Net Release is the best way I have found to keep my net secure behind me, yet easily accessible when needed. The magnet holds the net and when pulled the magnet splits into 2 magnets and the net is now available for netting your trout. It's a must have for any serious trout fisherman. You can order at many fly shops, as well as Cabelas.com.

Firefly Light and Magnifier

This is a great little addition for those fly fishing in low light or during the night time hours! It is a magnifier and lighted lamp that clips easily on the brow of your hat. The magnifier flips up and down. To turn on or off the LED light just reach up and push the button. Very slick.
