How To Tie Trout Spey Streamers - The one fly that started it all! Learn how to tie one of Dave's very first trout spey flies.
Trout spey flies come in all shapes and sizes - from traditional "spey" flies to downright ugly rabbit fur concoctions. The one thing these flies all have in common is that they catch fish!
We really try to design our trout spey flies to be a combination of the two fly tying styles. We really like lightweight materials that ultimately make larger looking flies with minimum materials and maximum casting and fish catching abilities.
The larger profile, yet minimal design allows for easier casting than more bulky trout spey streamers.
The materials we used in this fly can be swapped out for your favorite fly tying materials and colors. We love greens, blacks, browns and whites for tying this pattern. The use of a light bead head in this fly helps it sink and also adds to some action as well.
We hope you enjoy this fly as it has a very special place in our fly boxes!
Tight Lines!
