Pearly Peter Ross

Peter Ross: The Classic Attractor with Irresistible Flash

Dating back to the turn of the 20th century on Loch Tay, the Peter Ross is a legendary wet fly that has secured its spot in the loch angler’s essential arsenal. It’s a “go-to” pattern when you need maximum visual attraction and a fly that simply screams “eat me!”

Tied for Visibility and Aggression:

• Maximum Flash: The bright pearly body, complemented by the distinctive red thorax, creates an incredible visual trigger. When stripped through the water, it perfectly mimics the flash and movement of a fleeing minnow or small fry.
• Point Fly Power: The Peter Ross is traditionally, and most effectively, fished on the point of the cast. Its weight and flash act as an anchor and a primary target, drawing fish from a distance to investigate your entire team.
• Built to Battle: Like all flies from Lochcast Flies, this pattern is tied by me with durability in mind, using quality materials to ensure it stands up to the aggressive takes that this fly consistently provokes. When the fish are chasing, this Peter Ross variant delivers.
