Friday's Featured Fly

RIO's Silver Hilton - Pink Butt  -  This steelhead fly has a lot of good going on! Black, blue, pink, flashy and webby.  Killer!

From the West Coast to the Great Lakes, the Aqua Scandi is fantastic sink tip fly.  It has ample flash and just enough material to hold a strong profile.  Also an easy caster.

Aqua Flies - Stu's ostrich mini intruder - Pink and orange sure pops!  Great sunny day color combo for winter and summer steelhead.  Steelhead fishing is good right now and only going to get better this year.  Make sure your fly box is stocked and ready to go!

Halloween is right around the corner.  Time to break out the black and orange!  Aqua Flies Stu's Mini Ostrich Intruder is a great sink tip fly. Especially in clear water. 

This miniature version is tied on a size 2 Aqua talon hook, 27mm Aqua flies shank

and a 5/32 brass dumbell eye.

 

It’s prime terrestrial time and it sure is hard to beat a good hopper bite!  This is truly one of the best patterns of all time, RIO's Morrish Hopper.  Holds up a dropper well, but still rides flush in the film.  Don’t leave home without it!

It can be pretty hard to beat a Purple Green Butt Skunk. This is Travis Duddles pattern and a must have for your steelhead flies collection. This fly is slim, flashy, and just the right amount of Chartreuse.

Steelhead season is upon us and fishing is really good, pack your fly boxes and get ready.

We have all of the neccessities and non neccessities but just fun to have like a new new spey rod, new reel to go with the new rod, waders

Smaller sink tip flies definitely have their place in a dialed steelhead arsenal. Especially when the water is running clear.  RIO’s Bantam fits that bill perfectly.  It has enough material to maintain a visible profile at depth, but it’s not so big that it spooks fish.  Added bonus...it’s super easy to cast!

Shop Steelhead Sink Tip Flies

With the current number of summer steelhead in the Columbia, this is going to be a great season to commit some time to skaters! Aqua Flies Brett's Obie Skater is a great one to try. Small, buggy and tied on an extra sticky stinger hook. Perfect for water on the clear side. 

Fly tier Brett Jensen considers the Klamath his home river, and it is the Klamath that has been the inspiration for many of his summer and fall steelhead patterns. He ties his patterns with attention to materials that not only give his flies a look, but lets them perform as designed when fished.

Shop Dry Line Flies

The Para Wulff combines the characteristics of a low-riding dry fly parachute pattern with the high visibility of split calf tail wings.  If you’re looking for a great mayfly imitation that’s easy to see, look no further.  Available in several colors and sizes.

Don't Forget your fly box
