A nice way to cut down on the length of tying this fly, and some of the expense, is to palmer pine squirrel strips for the body. If pine squirrel is too small, rabbit strips are also great. For a fly that will push more water, try spinning a deer hair collar and head to really get those lateral lines triggered in murkier water. Rubber legs are always good on streamers!
This is a great pattern for streamer fishing any river or lake size for cold water and warm water species. The weightless aspect really gets this fly moving in the water. This pattern utilizes Flymen fish masks, which makes finishing this fly a breeze, and adds a little more realism to the streamer. The eyes on this pattern give those predatory fish something to lock in on as well.
If fishing this pattern in warmer water temperatures, give this fly a quick and jerky retrieve for better action from the streamer. In cooler water slow the retrieve down or swing it with the current. Fish this fly on a sink tip for fishing deeper water, or add lead-free weight to the fly when tying.
