CDC Khaki Mayfly Florian C9K

The Florian CDC Khaki C9K mayfly is a real trout and grayling magnet.

It really is the small mayfly imitation you pull out when all the classics have been ignored.

It has often proved to be a miracle pattern on my guiding sessions, whether for wild brown trout (in Brittany and elsewhere) or for grayling, particularly on the chalk-streams of southern England for the latter.

In sizes #18 and #20, and more than any other fly, the C9K has enabled me to catch many trophy grayling when they were not necessarily active on the surface.

Handcrafted in France.

Tied with care by professional fly tyer Florian from the finest natural materials from his own farm:
• Natural CDC khaki collar.
• Body in hare's ear dubbing ribbed with fine gold tinsel.
• Tail in pardo encendido cock back feather fibre.
• Orange thread head
• Tied on a chemically sharpened carbon hook with an incomparable sharpness.

How to use:
If I only had 3 or 4 Florian flies in the box, this would undoubtedly be one of my must-haves.
With its khaki CDC collar and light brown speckled rust pardo rooster (encendido) back feather fibre tail, it fishes in the film while remaining highly visible.

In sizes #14 and #16, it's an excellent fly for blind casting and covering fish lies, on edges or in front of rocks.

In sizes #18 and #20, it is one of the best grayling dry fly I know, Thymallus seeming to particularly appreciate the flashes generated by the few turns of thin gold tinsel ribbing the hare's ear body and its orange head.

Recommended tippet diameters:
ø 0.14 to ø 0.08 mm depending on the size of the fly.

Available hook sizes:
#14
