Green Heron Micro Intruder
Related content
A mix between a Green spey, Gray Heron, and a Micro Intruder... this is the Green Heron Micro Intruder. Like many of my steelhead flies, the Partridge Waddington shank is the platform and is tied without extra weight. This allows the fly life like movement on a floating line, a sink tip, or my favorite an intermediate head with a mono leader.
There are some useful techniques covered in this video. The use of a small amount of flash between the two arctic fox wings and the mounting of the Jungle Cock eyes.

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.
