#52-2013 R&R Rainbow - Barry Phillips #52-2013 R&R Rainbow - Barry Phillips

Tied by: Barry Phillips
Originated by: Barry Phillips

Hook: Mustad 3665A
Thread: Black 8/0
Tag: Gold flat tinsel
Body: Purple floss
Throat: Silver pheasant crest
Wing: Silver Dr. Blue under green under yellow under orange under red bucktail topped with peacock herl
Eye: Jungle cock nail
Head: Black

Notes: The design was created in 1999 by Barry on request from Ricki Lawrence, a lodge owner in Saskatchewan. She requested a streamer that they could including inside the Christmas cards they sent out to customers every year. A streamer was designed that incorporated the colors of the rainbow, fitting as the name of the fishing camp is Rainbow Lodge. As with almost anything that comes from Barry's vise, not only is is an attractive pattern to look at, it was also found to be a good producer in the Western Canadian waters.

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.
