    Default Cardinalle fly

    Can anyone give me the details on this New England pattern?

    Hi Ray,

    From Trolling Flies for Trout and Salmon:

    Cardinelle

    Thread: Flourescent red or orange
    Body: Flourescent red or orange wool
    Underwing: Flourescent red synthetic hair
    Overwing: Cerise marabou
    Hackle: Longish yellow saddle hackle, collared and tied back

    Comment: Despite its gaudy appearance this fly has proved to be occasionally very effective, especially for landlocked and coho salmon. It's also #3 on Dick Stewart's top ten list for streamers in this book.

    Regards,
    Mark

    Don't ever forget FAOL's archives when you are in need of something or looking for a fly pattern. I try to look first here before going anywhere else.......

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
