Fly of the Month: September 2015

flydetails

S our rivers will be inflitrated with salmon, steelhead, and lake run browns: What a great time of year! Copper Candy is a simple but effective fly. Don’t be afraid to exercise some creativity with the pattern. Substitute the over wing with grizzly, black, or yellow! The body too, with pearl, tan, or chartreuse. Tied on the size six hook, the fly can be fished as a large nymph. Tie the fly on a streamer hook and it can be stripped or swung. Good Luck!
