Thanks Tompa! You are too kind. Your flies are inspiring! I think they are just the tickets for our spring steelhead heading back down the river feeding on salmon smolts. Your wings are fuller and I will try the techniques you say. I think my problems with the cones stem from too much thread. The only available for me is 8/0. I will search for recomendations.

Sometimes You Just Have to sit back, relax and tie something out of a book. Making up steelhead flies as I go along has got my head hurting lately. And since they don't work anyways, I got out Dec's book (My Bible) and tied the Usk Grub. Had to sub the Badger Hackle with a Silver and a Brown one but I think it works

Sweet! This is one of my favorite Chinook patterns, I often replace the yellow with Chartruece and catch all sorts of stuff!

First Attempts

It was suggested by a respected friend that mid-winter, I should attempt to add realism into my steelhead arsenal

I think these need work but will fish

And because I couldn't help myself with these colors

Suggestions encouraged, Tompa? Please Help You have inspired me

SCHWEET!

Verno,

Targus has starting making some sweet synthetics. They have flash, synthetic seal and some craft fur type acrylic that was like 5 inches long. They make a shiny suerfine material at 4 1/2 inch fibers too.

The recipe for this fly is

Body: Purple and blue polar chennille twisted and run up the hook shank

1 black marabou palmered.

targus flashabou wine and blue holographic

1 dark blue marabou feather palmered

1 light blue marabou feather palmered

Collar: Black schlappen

HMH tube cone,

Took a break from BWO's to tie with some the stuff I got from the Somerset Show. Targus came out with some cool new flash that I incoporated into this winter swinger.
