The Double Renegade is a timeless attractor pattern that has earned its reputation as one of the most versatile flies ever tied. Featuring a dual-hackle design—one palmered through the body and another at the front—this fly creates extra movement, buoyancy, and surface disturbance, making it equally effective as a dry, wet, or even a searching nymph. Its peacock herl body and contrasting hackles give off a natural sheen that imitates everything from caddis and mayfly emergers to drowned terrestrials.
Simple, durable, and highly visible, the Double Renegade excels in a wide range of water conditions. Whether fished high and dry, swung in the film, or sunk slightly under the surface, it’s a proven fish-catcher for trout across freestones, tailwaters, and alpine streams.
Best for:
- Trout feeding near the surface or in the film
- Swinging or dead-drifting as a general attractor
- Clear to lightly stained rivers and creeks
📌 Pro Tip: Grease the front hackle to keep it riding high or let it soak and swing as a soft hackle. The Double Renegade’s adaptability makes it one of the most versatile patterns in your fly box.
