Kirk,
The so-called Orton-effect, which is used on all the images in this article, is merely a Photoshop-effect, which is freely accessible. See more details here.

Beautiful place - looks interesting to fish
Awesome article... Great looking pattern.. and the pictures are awesome.. how did you get that soft blur effect in the first few photos?
Try NeatImage or NoiseNinja to take out some of the high ISO noise.
You forgot the key ingredient..
FISH!
I imagine there will be enough evidence of the whole get together through hundreds of pictures...
Just back from the saltwater having walked the dog...Everything looks fine and dandy. One fat fish seen jumping.
Gear is ready. Hook up. Equipment check. Sound off for equipment check..?
Just waiting for the green light...
Rip.
Thanks Bob!
And sure the cameras and digital recorders are all loaded up and fully charged, ready to record the whole happening. Expect lots of pictures and stories.

Been tying for almost sixty years now and I must say this is the very first article that explains ever detail of the tying procedure and the tips are excellent. I have another class starting next week and I will guarantee each student will review this page before we start on streamers. The photography is so well done I felt like I was actually watching someone tie the fly!
Thank you so much for this little article. It arouse my attention to wet flies. It'd make this article much more valuable if you can add a little section to describe how to rig and fish them effectively.
Again, Thanks,
Simon
What are the different places that saddle and spade hackle come from? What are the uses for saddle, spade, and neck hackles?
Congratulations on a great web site. I am a new computer user and finding you was like coming home. Continued success.
AWESOME IDEA!
I was looking for SOMETHING to use for eyes the other day and this would've been a perfect solution. I ended up using some old Mardis Gras beads instead.
For my big streamer types that are long and garrish (ostrich feathered pike flies) I like the leather folding type with lamb's wool inside with a zipper that goes around three sides. I find them in antique shops and flea markets. They are worth cleaning well before use with soap and water but try not to get the leather wet. I blot them well dry with paper towels and then let them air dry. I have also done some leather work and am about to try and make a few with snaps for shutting. Like little soft briefcases.
For large flies I really like the nubby tack style boxes. The hook sits down between little rubber spikes and hold very firmly. For smaller flies the I like the slit foam style as well.
Great site by the way!!!
Very many thanks for a good work. Nice and useful. Like it!
It looks very interesting. I'll try it with wild norwegian trout. Thanks
Jason,
We don't fish that deep. The depth of the lakes usually keep us from going under 6-8' or about 2-2½ meters. What I indicated by "fishing deep" was just that we want the flies to get down well below the surface and preferably just above the bottom. If you want to go deeper, try a denser line, like a Teeny 750. That will go to almost any depth!
We haven't fished much in weedy areas, but technically that should be feasable. And of course you can add a weed guard.
Martin
Martin, in your article you mentioned that you go deep with these flies....how deep is deep? 20 ft? 30 ft? I'd like to get an idea of what type to conditions you were fishing? Have you had any success fishing these flies in shallow weeded areas....maybe with a weed guard? I'd like to try these flies for Tiger Muskie....I think they'll work great. Thanks.

Absolute synthetics materials all steamers. But very good streamer material: the bucktail.
Bucktai and magic head mix:
