I've finally found a little tying time and decided to change things up. In my opinion, steelhead and various spey style flies can be some of the nicest looking ones around. I've always wanted to make them, but have never given it a shot. Not until now.
("Popsicle" - Click for larger image)This is one of my first attempts. I know, there is plenty of room for improvement! I plan to keep working on them when I get more opportunities. Also, since I'm just messing around right now, these are being tied on the cheapest hooks I can find. When I get better, I'll invest in some nice spey hooks.
("Popsicle" - Click for larger image)This fly is modeled after the Popsicle. Orange marabou in back, red in the center, and purple up front. Within that mix is just a touch of flashabou. Upfront you'll see some guinea hackle. I've been tying a few other patterns and more will be posted here soon!
