Moonlit Fly Fishing RSS

When fishing the summer months you want to have a collection of PMD fly patterns in your box from nymphs, dries, emergers, or cripples.  This pattern for the emerger is deadly effective, when fished all by itself on the swing, or drifted trailing behind a dry fly pattern through a riffle or to rising fish.  We classify this as one of our Guide Series Flies because it is extremely effective, durable, and quick to tie.  These kinds of flies are a must have in your box.  We love the segmented look a biot gives the fly, for a realistic feel...

The Salvation Ant is a sunken ant pattern tied to fish below the surface.  Ants are one of the most prolific food sources during the warmer months with an over abundance of them scattered along any stream, river bed, in the trees, or bushes falling into the water.  Because of that they are an extremely effective bug to fish.  Not every ant will remain on the surface until eaten though, and many will become submersed in the water dropping into the fishes feeding zone.  This makes a sunken ant pattern a must have in every anglers box.  This one is...

The SLS Emerger is an effective Mayfly Emerger, from Blue Ribbon Flies in West Yellowstone. We have taken the liberty of tying this to match the BWO with great success. The use of the Synthetic Body Quill makes this a very easy and elegant pattern to tie.
