    Meet the Jerry Garcia Fish Emission Egg! Situk River steelhead anglers take note. It is well known that Situk steelhead really like psychedelic-colored flies and beads. And this little gem is both. It features a 10mm Pink Panther bead combined with fluorescent chartreuse dubbing and a blue wing.

    The Fish Emission Eggs are deadly. Now with a Mottled Egg Drop bead they are even better. The bead is welded on the hook, a tuft of white skein is pulled through the bead, and the hook is dubbed with a killer mix of colors.

    The Fish Skull Electric Leech is a great streamer pattern for trout, steelhead and char. It can be fished in multiple ways to accommodate different fisheries. Try swinging it in the spring, dead drifting it for steelhead or fish it in still water for cutts, rainbows and dolly varden. This pattern is really good for chasing the big char found along the Northern Coast. The stinger loop on this pattern is long enough to allow the hook to be changed out if it gets damaged.

    The Purple Fish Taco is one of our favorites for steelhead and kings. It is tied with a bit of pink on the rear of the shank that imparts a nice subtle pop of color. 

    Due to its light weight and slender profile this is a great fly in small or medium sized rivers. The ostrich and flash come alive in the water and it doesn't hang up at the end of the swing. If you are fishing the Sandy River or other Alaska Peninsula king rivers, the Fish Taco should be in your box.

    The Popsicle Foxee Prawn is one of our favorite lightly weighted king and steelhead flies. Sometimes lighter is better and if you are casting all day long.

    The Halo Prawn is an incredibly realistic fly that triggers salmon and steelhead to grab. The combination of materials creates a life like profile while still maintaining a translucent look. Halo Prawns are ideal steelhead swinging flies and will work from tidewater all the way up the river. Kings love them, too!

    Few flies have accounted for as many steelhead as the Green Butt Skunk. Either dead drifted or swung, this classic pattern hooks 'em up. You should have a few in your fly box.

    Straight from the Situk River in Yakutat comes the Garcia fly. It started with the Garcia Glo Bug, then the Garcia Sculpin and now the Hareball Leech. Why steelhead like them we don't know, but when they are on, you better have some in your box.

    The Chartreuse/Blue Flashtail Tube is a tidewater-lower river king slayer. Big Chinook just out of the salt love this color combo and the size of the fly is spot on. This fly has accounted for a lot of kings!

    Hartwick's Flashtail Tubes from Aqua Flies are just over 3 inches in length. They are tied with marabou, ostrich and flash. The marabou is tied in with a cone behind it so that it keeps a full profile in the water and is much more durable than a standard marabou tube fly. They are super wiggly in the water and still have a nice full profile.

    The Purple & Pink Flashtail Tube will hook fish from the estuary to the headwaters! Subdued enough to not spook fish that have been in awhile but with just enough flash and profile to elicit mega-grabs from fish just pouring in from the salt. Hartwick's Flashtail Tubes from Aqua Flies are just over 3 inches in length. They are tied with marabou, ostrich and flash. The marabou is tied in with a cone behind it so that it keeps a full profile in the water and is much more durable than a standard marabou tube fly. They are super wiggly in the water and still have a nice full profile.

    Hartwick's Hoser in Black Blue is a slick steelhead tube fly. Flowing marabou, grizzly hackle wings and subtle flash underneath are the perfect combination of all that steelhead love to eat. The tungsten conehead adds weight and is hidden just behind where the marabou is tied in. It also acts as a platform to keep the marabou from collapsing in the water. The fly is approximately 2 3/4" in length and comes ready to fish with junction tubing and hook.
