CDC Olive

CDC Olive is a natural dry fly pattern designed for trout and grayling fishing. Its olive body gives a realistic insect profile, while the CDC wing provides excellent buoyancy, soft movement, and a delicate presentation on the surface.

This fly is ideal when fish are feeding in the surface film or taking small olives and emerging insects. The natural colour and subtle profile make it useful on rivers, streams, glides, pools, and slower margins where a lighter presentation is needed.

A reliable choice for dry fly fishing and targeting rising fish, CDC Olive is a useful pattern to carry throughout the season, especially during olive hatches and calmer water conditions.
