More stuff to look at on The Global FlyFisher
People who looked at the above also looked at: Carrie Stevens patterns raske streamers : No page featuring New England Streamers would be complete without a portion dedicated to Carrie G. Stevens, of Madison, Maine. Mrs. Stevens is the originator or the Grey Ghost, one of the most well-known and effective New England Streamer patterns to have been tied, and still a popular choice as a trolling and casting streamer today. Go to the story Hooks for streamers raske streamers: The hook is the foundation on which a good streamer is built. When streamer anglers meet, quite often it's the subject of heated debate! I've listed a variety of the streamer hooks available on the market today (and some no longer available) in the table in the article. Go to the story Streamers Section: Our streamers section with New England streamers, Carrie Stevens patterns and flies from the hands and heads of Stewart and Leeman, Ray Bergman, Mike Martinek, Herb Welch and many more. Go to the streamer section here. Atrractor swap Swap: Undoubtedly, when one thinks of attractor streamer and bucktail patterns, the venerable Mickey Finn comes to mind. More often than not, it's the very first pattern streamer aficionados are introduced to when learning to tie...and rightly so, as it remains a productive pattern in our streamer wallets.

A few random articles for your entertainment Heads This is the end that counts to to most anglers: where the mouth is and where the fly is supposed to go. All these fish opened theirs over a hook, and they paid for it with a portrait. Pictures of fish from the very small sand eel to the very large steelhead. September 6th 2005 The Welded Phly Remember the line from "The Graduate"? "PLASTICS!" The hook was dressed with thread and body braid... fine makings for a proper foundation were in place... Temperamental pheatherz were spot welded in place without complaint nor defiance... October 26th 2010 Kai Nolting Kai is German fly fisher and fly tyer based in Sauerland in Germany and a very good friend of GFF. October 12th 2011 Rolled Trout One of my favorite dishes with trout is to make these trout rolls. Trout is both tasty and healthy - although I'm afraid I will spoil the latter a bit with this recipe. But who can resist fish, lemon, parsley and mustard? January 4th 2012
