The Steelhead Royal Wulff is a bold and buoyant dry fly designed to tempt surface-feeding steelhead in rivers and streams. Based on the legendary Royal Wulff, this steelhead variation features the same iconic red floss and peacock herl body, amplified with a bushy silhouette and durable construction to handle aggressive takes and heavy water.
Built with a high-floating calf tail wing and sturdy hackle, this pattern maintains visibility and stability in riffles, seams, and choppy current. Its vibrant color contrast and classic Wulff-style design make it a standout attractor when steelhead are active on the surface or during warmer months when fish respond to skated or dead-drifted dries.
Whether you’re skating it across tailouts or drifting it through glassy runs, the Steelhead Royal Wulff is a proven pattern that delivers explosive topwater strikes.
Best for:
- Summer and fall steelhead on the surface
- Swinging or dead-drifting in fast or broken water
- Triggering aggressive rises in clear conditions
📌 Pro Tip: Try skating this fly with a greased line technique during the early morning or late evening. Steelhead may strike out of aggression even when they're not actively feeding.
