Which fly have you tied that caught trout.

Recommended Posts

We all tie, but which fly did you catch trout on?

Maybe it is not a traditional pattern or it is your pattern. You had to have tied it yourself.

If you have a pic of your trusted (well tied) standby then it would be great to share it with others.

Come on you are all given bragging rights.

I fish lots of streamers it's just my game I guess, I also LOVE to tie different streamers. By far my favorite is a sculpin imitation.

 

Here are pictures of my two favorite sculpins.

WOW!!! :thumbup:

 

planettrout, carlp5351 fantastic flies.

SteveP I will definitely have to try those. Are they best in slow or fast water?

The bottom is a #6 3x nymph/streamer hook w/med lead (very important for the lead) dumbbells, they are best fished in slow to moderate water. The top fly is tied on a #2 3x nymph/streamer w/ med or small eyeballz or the Orvis eyes, that one was made to be fished in faster heavy flows and high off colored water situations. I have a couple of experimental sculpins that will be in the database soon I hope (if I can get my camera fixed).

Every fly rod trout I've caught was caught on one single pattern. Fair warning - I have caught a grand total of 3 trout on the fly and all were rainbow stockies in a small lake. But none the less, you asked. So here is the fly that took all 3. A fairly simple dragon nymph, size 8.

That is one nice fly riffleriversteelheadslayer. Deeky I have never put the rubber on mine, I'll have to try that variation. Thanks for the input it is much appreciated. It also helps to see some tried and trusted also. Not to mention the bragging rights.

JohnP nice fly. :thumbup: :thumbsup: What size hook is that?

 

 

Thanks Horseshoes. I think that is a #8, 4XL. The version that actually caught the fish was tied with peacock ice dub instead of regular herl for the body, but I had this pic in the can so I posted it.
