Ausable Wulff Dry Fly

The AuSable Wulff Dry Fly is a time-tested attractor pattern made famous on Michigan’s AuSable River and developed to offer maximum visibility, excellent floatation, and dependable performance in fast-moving water. Built in the Wulff tradition, this fly is designed to ride high on the surface while remaining easy for anglers to track in broken water, riffles, and pocket water.

Featuring upright split wings and a bushy hackle, the AuSable Wulff floats naturally and resists waterlogging even in turbulent currents. Its mixed hair wing makes it easy to see during night fishing or low-light conditions, while its rugged construction holds up to repeated strikes and false casts.

Rather than representing any single insect, the AuSable Wulff works as a highly visible general attractor that suggests a variety of mayflies, stoneflies, and caddis. Trout respond aggressively to its bold profile, especially in waters where selective feeding gives way to reaction strikes.

Made for trout anglers who fish challenging water, this fly shines when precision and flotation matter most. Each AuSable Wulff from Merrimack River Flies is hand-tied in the USA to ensure premium workmanship, durability, and fish-catching reliability.
