JC's Salmonfly

[Bruce Norikane]

You can find this one in the FOTW archives, but the August 10, 2009 FOTW FEB Hopper is a better presentation on how to tie it.

...
The whole series of flies ( skwala, salmonfly, golden stone, hopper, and October caddis ) tied on the FEB platform have served me well going on nine years. I fish these flies practically year round, somewhere around eighty days a year, and they have caught fish every month of the year, winter weather conditions permitting, in Northern Idaho.

Hi John,

The FEB style is new to me, and I like it a lot. I'm not sure how I missed it, as I've been reading this forum and FOTW for many years. Since I have a box of Antron in many colors thanks to Jim Ternent's generous gift many years ago.

For some reason, I had a hard time finding the FOTW August 10, 2009 FEB Hopper page using the FOTW index. Here is a direct link:

Thanks,
