#39 Angry Blue - Monte Smith


Tied by: Monte Smith

Originated by: Monte Smith


Hook: Mustad-Chestertown #3298, #8 (modified hook)

Eye: Silk gut

Tail: Black hackle fibers

Body: Flat blue tinsel

Rib: Small oval copper tinsel, doubled

Throat: Red schlappen fibers

Wing: 2 royal blue hackles flanked by slightly shorter black hackles

Eyes: Small Jungle Cock

Head: Black


Notes: Monte did a wonderful job modifying these Mustad-Chestertown #3298 hooks to work for these streamers. You can see his notes on the process here, and check out another original streamer pattern from Monte.

This is the streamer adaptation of my steelhead fly of the same name. I like using blue in a few patterns as I find it highly effective and under-used.

Let me be the first to say I adore this fly. I love black and blue, and this pattern is literally a killer. Wow. Just gorgeous work!!

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
