W J Lunn fishing flies are some of the most traditional patterns around, favoured by many anglers, they will never go out of fashion.
The Lunn’s Houghton Ruby an imitation of the female iron-blue spinner, one of the trout's most favourite meals. The ruby in truth was William’s second attempt at copying a spent iron-blue. His first attempt, christened Lunn’s fancy, while liked greatly was replaced in 1917 by the better Houghton Ruby. It is a fine example of what makes Lunn’s flies so special, sitting as it does in the upper film of the water with it’s broad wings laid out defining the shape of the natural perfectly from the trout’s view-point.
