Lagartun Mini Flat Braid Summer Steelhead Fly Series: Fluorescent Orange

July 19th, 2010 · 1 Comment

The first of four different steelhead flies tied by Jay Nicholas from his Steelhead Mini Flat Braid Series. Fluorescent Orange Lagartun Mini Flat Braid over-body and a silver Lagartun Mini Flat Braid under-body give this pattern a subtle glow in the water. Add some trilobal dubbing and a Krystal Flash wing and you have a steelhead magnet. More versions of this one to come.–CD
