About the Grizzly King Trout Fly

The Grizzly King is a classic Scottish fly pattern that was created many years ago and has become popular in America as well.

It's a type of wet fly pattern that is typically used for fly fishing for trout and other freshwater fish species.

Expert Tip:

Wet flies are typically fished on or just below the surface of the water. Fish on a floating line, using a variety of retrieve methods, such as a slow figure-eight or a traditional wet fly swing. It's an effective pattern for catching both rainbow and brown trout, and other fish species that feed on aquatic insects.
