Wyoming Double Renegade

The Wyoming Double Renegade is a high-floating, highly effective attractor fly designed for targeting trout in rivers, lakes, and high-country streams. This variation of the classic Renegade features a dual-hackle design, enhancing buoyancy and creating additional surface disturbance to entice fish. Its buggy profile and versatile presentation make it an excellent choice for imitating various terrestrial insects, midges, and even small emerging mayflies.

Tied with durable materials, the Wyoming Double Renegade offers excellent flotation, making it ideal for fast-moving riffles, pocket water, and stillwater conditions where fish are actively feeding on the surface. The added hackle provides extra stability, ensuring the fly stays on top of the water, even in rougher currents.

To fish the Wyoming Double Renegade effectively, cast it upstream or across the current and let it drift naturally with a dry-fly presentation. A subtle twitch or skittering motion can mimic an emerging insect or struggling terrestrial, triggering aggressive strikes from opportunistic trout. This fly excels during summer and early fall when fish are feeding on a variety of surface insects.
