The fly originated on the Pennsylvania's famed Yellow Breeches.

Wow! From the Troutgetter web site no less. I searched that web site and didn't find it. Many thanks Flytire, for being my second set of eyes. The 69-year-old pair I have are letting me down more and more. Ron

Yes, someone mentioned the Tellico nymph as being similar. What I plan to do today is use the Tellico nymph as a starting point and modify as needed to end up with a fly that mimics the Troutgetter. Thanks, Ron

That's just it. I don't have a sample. All I have is a small out-of-focus picture. Thanks anyway.

From NEPA. I'm pretty sure the fly was developed originally for use on the Yellow Breeches. If I knew the materials used in the fly, I wouldn't be asking for the recipe which includes the materials used.

I am looking for a recipe for a very old trout fly called the "Troutgetter". None of my books have it and my internet search hasn't produced any results. I have attached a picture of the fly. If any one can provide a Troutgetter fly recipe, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
