mvendon 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2019 Brook Trout size 6 This imitation of a small brook trout was originated by the famous angler Lew Oatman, of Shushan , New York, for use in waters where large brook trout are accustomed to feed on small ones. The fly has had outstanding success, especially in Quebec and in California lakes where eastern brook trout were planted. It is also effective for rainbow trout and other species. Lew Oatman came up with other famous streamer patterns in the 1950's. He died that same decade. He's known for the tapered bodies on his streamer patterns.

mvendon 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2019 Look great as usual Kimo, Nice tie also mvendon, but what feather is that with the coloured dots on it, never seen one off them before Thanks feckineejit The wing has two grizzly hackles on the inside, with an olive green feather on either side of that. The green hackles are painted with three alternating small red and yellow dots. You can't see one set of them since the JC eye is covering them up.
