Traver Tried n Trude

All about flies Fly Tying

I’m looking for this pattern. I Googled it but came up empty. I have seen a picture of it but it was slimy and in a fishes mouth! Any help would be much appreciated.

A Trude is just a style of a dry fly with the hair wing lying down, streamer style, rather than upright. A Royal Trude is just a Royal Coachman hairwing fly with the wing tied horizontally instead of vertically.

Regards,
Ted
