Does anybody any pics of some flesh flies maybe a recipe or two? I'm thinking of head ing to the upper squamish and I'd like to tie some up before I go.
Thanks
Bead Head
A simple and very effective flesh fly.
Eyes optional- lead or whatever suits the water.
Tail- rabbit strip
Body- rabbit strip
I tie these two ways.
1
Tie in eyes or not.
Tie rabbit strip in at mid point on hook shank
Wrap forward of eyes.
Tie off.
2
Tie in eyes or not
Tie in rabbit strip at head.
thats it.whip a dozen off in no time.
I use heavy wire hooks for these usually.
Use rabbit in various shades of
Tan
Ginger
Gray
natural brown/gray
washed out pinks
The darker natural gray is very cool as the hide stays quite light
and the resultant fly looks like a piece of skin coming down the current.
Dark on one side light on the other.
Dollies/bulls and steelies like em.
Have fun
