Fulling Mill Spider Partridge & Orange – Classic Early Hatch Trout Fly
The Spider Partridge & Orange is a timeless and highly effective spider pattern that has enjoyed a strong resurgence in recent years. This fly is an excellent choice at the beginning of a hatch when insects are emerging but trout are feeding subsurface rather than rising confidently.
The soft partridge hackle breathes naturally in the water, creating subtle movement that perfectly imitates emerging insects, drowned flies, and struggling invertebrates. The understated orange body provides just enough contrast to trigger takes without appearing unnatural, making it deadly on pressured waters.
Equally effective on rivers and stillwaters, this spider fly can be fished static or with the slowest of retrieves. It excels when trout are intercepting food just below the surface film and ignoring dry flies.
Key Features
- Classic Partridge & Orange spider pattern
- Soft partridge hackle for lifelike movement
- Subtle orange body for gentle attraction
- Effective in both rivers and stillwaters
- Ideal early-hatch and searching fly
Why It Works in Irish Waters
Irish trout frequently feed just under the surface during early stages of a hatch, particularly on loughs and slower river glides. The Spider Partridge & Orange perfectly matches this feeding behaviour, making it a reliable option when fish are showing but not rising.
Best Fishing Methods
- Fished on a floating or intermediate line
- Static presentation or slow figure-of-eight retrieve
- Ideal as a top or middle dropper
- Excellent during buzzer, olive, and sedge hatches

Let customers speak for us
from 6960 reviewsReally impressed with this surf rod. It casts long and accurately, even with heavier leads, and has plenty of backbone for fighting decent fish from the shore. The tip is sensitive enough to detect smaller bites, which is a big plus. Feels well balanced and comfortable during longer sessions. Great performance for the price – highly recommended for beach fishing in Ireland. 🎣
Great piece of kit,delivered swiftly as always plenty of room for lots of equipment.
Great fluorocarbon.... highly recommended
The roach were great and the size I wanted. However the smelt were smaller than large.
Line looks good. Very good service and quick delivery
Great jacket for all seasons, thermo lined for the colder nights on the shore. My son loves it
