During the spring fry bust, trout and Dolly Varden can come completely unglued for a topwater waking pattern. Enter the Sea Run Slider. If there is current try waking this fly or even letting it hang at the end of your drift. This technique can trigger slashing attacks. In calm water situation stripping the fly can be deadly effective.

From the endlessly creative mind of Alaskan guide Jerry French, comes the Meat Lovers Special flesh fly. It is a "pocket size" flesh fly that won't spook trout when the water is low and clear. A few beads dangling out the back take it over the top! The fly is just under 2 inches in length.

From the vise of well know angler Jerry Darkes, comes the Naknek Sockeye Smolt. The rabbit strip body wiggles and dances like a wounded smolt while the spun deer hair head imparts buoyancy. Fish it on a floating line for the smolt bust or on a sink tip when the rainbows are holding deeper.

The Hare Snare FISHES for coho! At first glance, it may not look like a lot (in fact we nicknamed it the Bag O Trash when we first got it) but it is an impressive fish catcher. Of course the Cerise and Tutti Fruiti are winners, but don't overlook the Black. It was a winner even for bright fish off the beach!

If you are fishing in Bristol Bay or the Matsu in June or July, this fly is money. We have had folks come back from week long float trips where this was the #1 rainbow trout catching fly. Make sure to have a few in your box. Not only do they fish incredibly well, but they are easy to cast and can be thrown on a trout Spey rod quite nicely.

Flamingo Trout Beads are straight up "on the menu" when you are fishing for steelhead. We also love them in 8mm as a Dolly attractor bead or as a trailer bead when tying flies like a Double Eggabou.
