Gopher 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2005 So over the past while I have been focusing my attention on realistic flies. But a friend who is heading out to the coast (Vancouver Island) is planning to do some ocean fly fishing, and asked me to make him some flies. Problem is I don't really know any saltwater streamer patterns. Most of mine are for rivers, and lakes. To my shame I don't even have a book with many saltwater patterns in it. Can you guys and gals give me a hand. If you know of a site, or pattern descriptions. I would appreciate it. Gopher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maddog48 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2005 Big Will gave you probably one of the better sites that I have found. I also like this one. It's a modified pattern of the Blonde series that Joe Brooks created. This pattern is tied by Kelly Galloup. The only problem is it calls for a keel hook. You may have to tweak a streamer hook if you can't find a keel. http://www.questoutdoors.net/skills/ftying...s/streamers/sb/ Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
