#10 Funky Sunrise - Barry Phillips


Tied by: Barry Phillips

Originated by: Barry Phillips


Hook: Gaelic Supreme Mike Martinek Rangeley Streamer hook

Thread: Black 70 denier

Tail: Green hackle fibers

Body: Flat gold tinsel

Ribbing: Oval silver tinsel

Belly: White bucktail

Throat: Green hackle fibers

Wing: 4 Fire Tiger dyed hackles

Shoulder: Blue peacock

Eye: Jungle cock nail

Head: Black


Notes: This fly takes advantage of the FeathersMC specialty dyed line of feathers called Funky Feathers. Barry used the perch inspired Fire Tiger colored feathers to tie this attractor pattern. It was initially tied just for fun as something nice to look at, but a trial run through some Northern Alberta lakes suggests that the Rainbow trout population have taken a liking to Barry's streamer as well.

… 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.
