IQ Dawn series

A series of flies for sea trout and salmon

By Ismo Saastamoinen

The purpose of the IQ Dawn Series is to cover most variations you can encounter at a salmon river. And hopefully catch a Salmon Salar, king of fish! All flies can easily be made to spey flies - just change the hackle to heron feather instead, in the same color.

Skit fiske!

People who looked at the above also looked at: Ismo Saastamoinen	These other stories on "Salmon Flies - Flies for Atlantic and Pacific salmon" might also interest you: How to dress salmon flies Book review: This is a very quotable book. I like short, concentrated books, that don\'t waste too much time on repetitions and smalltalk. Mr. Pryce-Tannatt is a writer just after my heart, when it comes to that. He does not beat around the bush and talk in length about things that don\'t concern the subject. Go to the story Good floss work Tiebetter: I’ve developed a habit instilled in me by my salmonfly tying mentors. When evaluating the salmon fly dressings of others, I look at the floss work first. It is a key characteristic that determines and shows the skills of the cream of the crop. Go to the story More about Salmon Flies
A few random articles for your entertainment Running down the man Extremely short, but very entertaining story about a bunch of half crazy anglers that hunt for roosterfish from the beach of the Baja Mexico. Made in a contemporary, fast paced and action filled manner with only little emphasis on facts and fishing methods but a lot of emphasis on the rush of chasing and catching these magnificent fish. December 28th 2008 10 rules for catch and release The debate over catch and release (C&R) can get so heated sometimes that you forget what fishing is all about: having a good time by the water, enjoying nature - and catching a fish now and then. January 9th 2010 The Terrible Muddler This is the lazy man's muddler, the sloppy tier's muddler, the beginner's muddler. It's actually quite close in style to some of the first Muddler Minnows tied by Don Gapen back in the 30's. August 1st 2011 Line care Third and last part of fishing guide Roland Henrion's article on fly fishing equipment care and maintenance. This time on the proper treatment and storage of fly lines. Tired of stiff, coiling lines that makes bird's nests? February 28th 2005
