Catskill Flies
The Catskills are the birthplace of fly fishing. Anglers from around the world travel here to be part of the history.
Quill Gordon
Ken Lockwood, from the book "The Complete Fly Tier", written by Reuben R. Cross-
Little Marryat
Quill Gordon tied on a size 12 vintage mustad 94840. Instead of using a blue dun hackle I used whitingfarms medium brown dun and really like the buggy effect it puts on this fly.

Reuben “Rube” Cross wrote “Tying American Trout Lures” in 1936. Before this publication, there wasn’t a comprehensive collection of information on tying the American dry fly. It was a closely guarded secret by many fishermen, most not willing to teach another what they knew. Rube was no different, and even turned away Walt Dette when asked if he could show him his techniques.
A fly I tied a couple days ago while working on my hackle tip wings and never got around to posting it.
The Dungeon…
Badger Spiders, #16. Spider, as in Skater or Variant, a now seldom used Catskill fly using a oversized hackles. Described by Roderick Haig-Brown (and Lee Wulff) as among the most useful of dry flies. Fun little ones to tie, can't wait to fish them.

Catskill Fly Patterns 3/3
Named after the “Father of American Dry Fly Fishing”, Theodore Gordon who originated the Catskill style of tying flies. The Catskill Fly patterns series would not be complete without this one.
Gordon lived near the Neversink River in New York’s Catskills, and learned about the English dry fly revolution from his friend Frederic Halford.
Gordon changed the appearance of the dry fly by tying flies with stiffer and more sparse hackle. This method was perfect for the fast American waters.
(Source: catskillflyfishingmuseum)
Even this is not a dry fly, the Gordon legacy lives on in the Quill Gordon wet.
The fly is dressed almost the way Ray wrote it in Trout. I tend to keep the thread color neutral when tying these Catskill patterns. UTC 70 denier Brown Gray suits them perfectly.
Body: Peacock Quill veniardltd
Ribbing:
Tip:
Tail: Bronze Blue-Gray
Hackle: Bronze Blue-Gray
Wing: Mandarin Speckled
The hook is spritehooks Sprite S1175 Heavy Match Wet in size 12. Wood duck or Mandarin are difficult to find, so I used mallard in color Summer Yellow. I changed the tail to Mallard, which is one way of tying this fly. I just like the look of it, and you can’t go wrong with Wood duck, Mandarin or Summer Yellow mallard. The hackle is medium dunn hen.

Catskill Fly Patterns 1/3
Ray Bergman describes the pattern the following way: ”This rather dull-looking brown fly with its blue-gray body is a standard pattern that you can rely on whenever brownish dull fly is needed.
On the whole it is a brown-trout pattern, and the sizes most generally useful are 10 and 12, but 14 is often needed on low and clear water.” (Trout, 1938, p. 40)
Ray also writes that Cahill is most killing for brook trout in the North in the larger sizes-say 6 and 8. I have to try this next time when fishing for Arctic char.
The pattern is perfect for those low water July and August late summer evenings here in Finland.
The fly is dressed the way Ray wrote it in Trout. I tend to keep the thread color neutral when tying these Catskill patterns. UTC 70 denier Brown Gray suits them perfectly.
Body: Blue-Gray Fur Dubbing
Ribbing:
Tip: Gold Tinsel if desired
Tail: Mandarin or Dyed Mallard on low price flies veniardltd
Hackle: Brown harelinedubbin
Wing: Mandarin or Dyed Mallard on low price flies veniardltd
The hook is partridge_hooks G3A/L Spoat bend in size 8, but generally I use size 14 2x long hook for this pattern. Wood duck is difficult to find, so I used mallard in color Wood duck.

This book was the first “tell all” and allowed others to finally learn the proper way to dress a fly. As to Cross’s reason for the change of heart, “Well, there aren’t very many people tying good flies-not near enough to go around-but there are a whole lot who would get a great deal more fun out of fishing if they used good flies. Maybe I can help a little by telling how I tie mine.”
Reading the original copies to me is the equivalent to listening to music on Spotify to listening to the original vinyl pressing. Of course you love the song no matter what, but to find and return to the source material and hear it the way everyone in that time heard it for the first time brings a certain magic. This magic rests in the pages of these books as well, and opening them and reading what was never read before by fishermen in that time period is an inspiration.
It reminds me of how lucky we all are that these legends made the decision to share this unique art with others.

Catskill Fly Patterns 2/3
Natural bugginess and dullness with a slight contrast of the orange floss make this the ultimate Catskill pattern.
It doesn’t imitate anything and in the same time it imitates everything, like all the good ones.
Palmered hackle is a common element of all the time proven effective flies. Think patterns like the Red Tag and The Zulu. And of course the notorious Woolly Worm.
I can see this fly being a one of those when nothing else is working- patterns, or an oversized Caddis imitation.
The fly is dressed the way Ray wrote it in Trout. I tend to keep the thread color neutral when tying these Catskill patterns. UTC 70 denier Brown Gray suits them perfectly.
Body: Orange Floss
Ribbing:
Tip:
Tail: Mandarin or Dyed Mallard veniardltd
Hackle: Brown Palmer harelinedubbin
Wing: Mandarin or Dyed Mallard veniardltd
The hook is partridge_hooks G3A/L Spoat bend in size 8. Wood duck or Mandarin are difficult to find, so I used mallard in color Summer Yellow.
