The UPDATED Barbless Wulff Selection, during the tail end of the Mayfly hatch and the start of the summer hatches, the Wulff series of flies are the first thing I tie on, they are great searching patterns and are good representations of the major up-winged flies found on the river at these times. Here we have a selection of 16 Wulffs four different patterns (to cover the major river types/colours in the UK) in two different sizes (12 & 16).

The Wulff dry fly was first tied by Lee Wulff, and with its bushy hackle is a great fly for those riffles which would sink a more delicate fly. Fish these flies as a standard dry, but don't be afraid to also fish these when they are wet - they are surprisingly successful when fished in the surface film! The Wulff flies come into their own in an afternoon through to late evenings.

When searching the river with a Wulff, try this technique:

1. From the bank, section the river into lanes about 3ft wide.
2. Cast upstream and make 3 or 4 drifts in the nearest lane, repeat for each lane, working away from you.
3. Step upstream and repeat the process.

Descriptions and photos of the flies can be found below:
