An easy to tie and popular pattern for fall salmon. This fly can be tied in an infinite combination of colors.
|
Step By Step:
|
Insert hook in vice and attach tying thread near the eye.
|
Tie in the flat tinsel just behind the eye. Tie the tinsel in with the gold side up.
|
Fold the flat tinsel over itself and wrap backwards to a spot above the hook point. Now reverse the direction and over-wrap the tinsel back to the original tie in point. Bind down and trim the surplus.
|
Strip one side of a large marabou plume and tie it in by it's tip, making sure you leave plenty of room for the rest of the collar and head.
|
Take 2-3 turns of the marabou directly in front of one another, bind down the end and trim the surplus.
|
Tie in 2 strands of Flashabou, doubled over, on top of the hook shank.
|
Strip one side of another large marabou plume and tie it in by it's tip. Pick a color that either complements or contrasts sharply with the first marabou plume.
|
Take another 2-3 turns of the marabou directly in front of one another, bind down the end and trim the surplus.
|
Wrap a small bright head and whip finish.
