{"product_id":"royal-coachman-wet","title":"Royal Coachman Wet","description":"\u003ch1\u003eRoyal Coachman Wet\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoyal Coachman Wet is another of those quintessential flies that embody everything that most people think of when thinking of “a fly”. While the classic Coachman is quite beautiful in its simplicity, the Royal Coachman is a bit more flashy and striking with its dash of red between the peacock herl parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white wings are striking and in fact very visible under water, which I’m sure is part if its efficiency. I actually think it’s a shame that less and less people are using and tying these old, beautiful classic wets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe origins of the Royal Coachman are a bit tricky to pin down. Mary Orvis Marbury attributes it to a John Hall, who first tied it in 1878. Others, for instance David Collier in his book, Fly Dressing I, says it’s of English origin. Wherever it originated, it’s obvious that it’s old and from before 1900. There are several variants – of course the feather winged wet, the feather winged dry and both hair winged wets and dries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a bit of practice it’s not that hard to tie, if you fancy having a go at it.
