A black suspender dry fly is a type of fly used in fly fishing. It is a pattern that imitates an adult insect, such as a caddisfly or mayfly, that is resting on the surface of the water with its wings upright, or "suspended."

The black colour is a common choice for imitating many types of insects, as it can represent the dark coloration of an adult insect or the shadow they cast on the water. The suspender element of the fly, which keeps the fly floating on the surface, can be made from a variety of materials such as foam or deer hair.

When fishing with a black suspender dry fly, it is important to match the size and colour of the fly to the insects that are present in the water. It is also important to pay attention to the feeding behaviour of the fish, as they may be selectively feeding on a specific type of insect.

Dry fly fishing involves presenting the fly on the surface of the water to imitate an adult insect, and enticing the fish to rise up and take the fly. The technique requires a delicate presentation, as the fly should land softly on the water and float naturally in the current.
