Very nice.
Thanks, works killer at Jordanelle in brown.
That pattern would be killer in olive on the provo.
GOOD IDEA! I will get on it…Thanks!
For those of us who already have too many hobbies already and can’t justify tying our own flies at this time, where is a good place to buy flies like the streamer you showed us? Have you come across a place that stands out in terms of good flies for us Fly Casters? Thanks for your time to post such a good looking fly.
flys are sold at just about every place that sells fishing tackle but to get a special fly like that, you have to tie your own or have a friend tie it up for you. you might find a sculpin at anglers den, high country,fish tech or western rivers.
