BC_angler 0 Report post Posted August 29, 2010 Very soon the coho will be entering the streams and rivers of the Pacific Northwest, in preparation I've been tying up a few of these. The original recipe calls for a 2 1/2 inch Long Dee or 7/0 low water salmon, I have neither so I tried tying them on some blind eye hooks I had lying around. Tail: Blue hackle tip Body: Flat silver tinsel Wing: White under blue polar bear hair, with blue then badger hackles laid alongside Originator: Roderick Haig-Brown Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
