Designed and popularized by Englishman Peter Deane this odd looking creation has had meteoric success in Iceland and has been doing extremely well in our river systems. It was named after his fly tying assistant Miss Frances Hoydon and has been a success story ever since. Red and Black Frances are the most popular pattern colour, but I have had to bring them out in two other colours due to the popularity with anglers, this can mean only one thing the fly is deadly. We have tied this one on a gold Partridge Patriot double.
