Dry Fly - Black Winged Ant Bi-Wing CDC - Orange Tag

Dry Fly - Black Winged Ant Bi-Wing CDC

This Black Winged Ant from our Tactical Series range is a must-have imitation, especially deadly during flying ant falls or for working the edges. Its dark profile and lively wings are simply irresistible.

The natural CDC (cul de canard) wings realistically mimic the translucency and sparkle of a winged ant drifting drag-free. The bi-wing tie-in provides perfect stability, preventing the fly from tipping over.

For better visibility, it features a fluorescent orange tag. Discreet to fish, this visual hotspot helps you keep track of your fly at all times.

The body is tied with a black dubbing with iridescent highlights, mimicking the glossy, chitinous look of an ant’s abdomen. This is a fly that triggers confident takes, often from fish that refuse classic mayfly patterns.
