A legendary searching pattern that continues to catch fish nearly a century later. The Carey Special originated in British Columbia in the 1920s and has earned a reputation as one of the most versatile attractor patterns ever tied. Whether fished in lakes, rivers, ponds, or swung through autumn runs for spawning trout and steelhead, this fly consistently produces when fish are feeding on a variety of subsurface prey.
Built with premium Grouse rump feathers, a soft webby Grouse hackle collar, and subtle flash ribbing, the Carey Special creates lifelike movement that mimics everything from dragonfly nymphs and damselflies to leeches, caddis pupae, and small baitfish. The soft hackle fibers pulse and breathe in the current, making it irresistible to opportunistic fish.
