Copper Green Streamer Fly Pattern Recipe

Hook: Mustad #2 8xl R79-94720
Thread: Black 8/0
Body: Copper flat tinsel
Belly: Yellow bucktail
Throat: Red hackle fibers
Wing: Green hackle flanked by brown hackle
Shoulder: Ringneck pheasant back
Eye: Jungle cock nail
Head: Black

Notes:

Cameron has created a series of original designs based on and inspired by the works of Carrie Stevens which include this streamer and his Antique streamer. The Copper / Green has been crafted to mimic the colors of bait fish that can be found in and around the Great Lakes where Cameron often chooses to wet a line. The pheasant cheek creates a nice fat target for predators, and the fly has been successful swinging in some of Ontario's fast flowing waters.

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.
