Patterns for Lake Ontario Streamers for Downrigging?
Help!
I volunteered to tie some streamers for a friend who wants to fish for salmon, lake trout, and trout in Lake Ontario. He has a sailboat and will be fishing with a downrigger.
Any help with patterns and hook suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

" Fishermen, hunters, wood choppers, and others,
spending their lives in the fields and woods,
in a peculiar sense a part of Nature themselves,
are often in a more favorable mood for observing her,
in the intervals of their pursuits,
than philosophers or poets even,
who approach her with expectation."
Henry David Thoreau
these work well for trolling;

Can you post the names of the flies that you posted? I like the looks of them a lot!

My favorite when we fished for Salmon in Lake Michigan was a light blue and white Polar Bear streamer, blue of top white on the bottom with large eyes, fished on a downrigger with silver flasher.
Worked really well.
