First Black Damse
LFT-NA29.08Description
No documented origin or inventor can be found for the First Black Damse. It belongs to the broad family of British damselfly nymph patterns that have been used on stillwater for decades to imitate the larvae of the damselfly.
The slim black body with silver ribbing and the eye-catching glitter thorax create a natural silhouette. It's fished with slow, undulating strips to imitate a damselfly larva's swimming motion - especially effective on stillwater and in slow river sections for trout and char.
Fair Trade, Full Circle
Your flies are tied fairly, with the best materials, on a barbless hook. "Fliegenfischen mit Herz" is building a base for women in Nairobi. The women there own and run the tying workshop themselves, giving them economic independence, pride in their craft, and joy in their customers. Let's work together toward a more balanced world.
