The Red Quill Hi Vis is a traditional mayfly dry fly designed to imitate the Paraleptophlebia and Ephemerella species commonly known as Red Quills. This modern variation keeps the slim, segmented reddish-brown body and upright dun wings of the original but adds a high-visibility post, making it easier for anglers to track in low light or broken water.
Its slender profile and natural coloring make it a superb imitation during spring and fall Red Quill hatches, when trout feed selectively on duns drifting in the current. The parachute-style hackle provides excellent flotation, ensuring the fishing flies ride flush in the surface film, while the Hi-Vis post improves visibility without spooking fish.
The Red Quill Hi Vis is especially effective on clear streams, spring creeks, and tailwaters where trout demand accurate imitations. It excels during afternoon and evening hatches, when naturals can cover the water and trout rise rhythmically to feed. Whether presented in gentle riffles or smooth glides, these fly fishing flies are a reliable choice for anglers seeking both performance and ease of tracking on the water.
