Brent,
I am very impressed by your Video. The Babine Steelhead are the most beautiful fish! Does the blue/purple Spey Fly have a name?
Thanks,
Doug

Hey Doug,
it's an intruder variant. Pretty much all i fished up there was intruders (tied with rhea and ostrich)

Brent,

Wow! Great show, beautiful fish, unbelievable country. Without looking on a map, can I ask where the Babine River is?

Thanks
Beaver

Beaver, The Babine River is in BC

Doug,
that's kind of like it, there are so many variants..heres one i fished, (didn't last too long, snagged on a tree...on the otherside of the river!)



Pretty much Rhea, Ice Dub and More Rhea...i'll get a picture of the ones i'm tying now up sooner or later


but this is what some of the fish up there can do, had this happen to me on the second day

Brent,
Here is a Spey fly from upstreamadventures.com (B.C. site): http://www.upstreamadventures.com/IMGP3799.JPG
It doesn't have a stinger hook. Is this a Tube fly?
