Woven Klinkhammer Olive created by Hans Van Klinken.
This is definitely an essential fly. This excellent fish-catching fly was devised by the innovative Dutch fly-tyer Hans Van Klinken. The fly, which hangs down in the water supported by the parachute hackle,could be classed as an emerger, an aquatic insect on the point of hatching; whatever the classification, the trout certainly find it extremely attractive. It has been effective on English chalk streams for both trout and grayling. The hackle has floatant applied with the body taking in water so that it sits low as an emerger.
The Woven Klinkhammer Olive is an incredible fish catching fly devised by the innovative Dutch fly tyer Hans Van Klinken for trout and grayling. When on a course with Oliver Edwards he said that this fly should be kept in the car glove boxe next to your pack of emergency condoms....... this fly is absolutely incredible, even when fish asre not taking on the surface this fly is known to 'lift' fish.The fly hangs down in the water supported by the parachute hackle. Due to to body of the pupa sitting under the surface while the hackle and wing are on the surface it represents an emerging caddis fly. The Woven Klinkhammer Olive is tied with CDC on the post. The Woven Klinkhammer Olive is effective on everywhere from English chalk streams to rivers world-wide. At The Essential Fly we have also devised a high visibility variant of the Woven Klinkhammer Olive with black and luminous yellow posts.

As the name indicates dry flies which include Woven Klinkhammer Olive are designed to float on the surface of the water. Trout dry flies types which include Woven Klinkhammer Olive imitate a wide variery of flies and insects which inhabit the surface of the water. There is nothing like using dry flies and watching trout and grayling rise to the surface. To purists dry fly fishing is the true art-form of fly fishing, indeed some rivers only permit dry fly fishing. There are some dry flies (e.g. the Popper, Muddlers) which are designed to attract fish by the action of creating a surface disturbance. The flies are made from very bouyant materials (e.g, cork, ethafoam or deer hair, the latter having a generous application of floatant). A Muddler retrieved upwind of a rise can often result in a bulge in the water as the fish follows the fly.
A dry fly like Woven Klinkhammer Olive has flotant (Gink is the most popular) warmed in your hand and gently rubbed into the hackles to help Woven Klinkhammer Olive float and they are usually cast singly on a trout tapered leader. A floating line is used, but with the tapered leader de-greased so that it does not glint and flash light spooking the trout
The Woven Klinkhammer Olive is fished by putting floatant on the wing post and moistening the body (I put it in my mouth and use spittle to make the body wet and sink into the surface film). The fly is then floated down stream with constant mends as appropriate to stop the Woven Klinkhammer Olive skimming the stream as it must float naturally at the speed of the current.
For the more adventurous among you we have provided tying specifications for the Woven Klinkhammer Olive. Remember at The Essential Fly we sell the Woven Klinkhammer Olive at incredible prices with a top quality fly and service to back it up. It is certainly worth tying the Woven Klinkhammer Olive yourself to understand the pleasure of catching a fish with your own tied fly, however at the price we sell flies it is only worth tying one or two Woven Klinkhammer Olive as your can spend more time fishing instead of tying flies - buy volume online with us.Hook SizesLiving Larva Hook sizes 10 to 20Silk ThreadBlackBodyWoven white and olive nylonBody HackleBrown cock parachute styleWing postPolypropylene yarn
