I'll try and make this more of an annual thread. So this will be our 2023 thread.

Landlocks are running, and I'm hitting some new rivers that have a complete prohibition on weight on flies or leader. A little annoyed to be whipping up flies that I mostly have in the box with only small beads anyway.

A few varieties of a Pacific Salmon tie that I’m tying up for next summer. Which one do you think will hook up the most Pinkys and Cohos?

Martin

Tag - Gold tinsel *
Tail - Yellow and black – married **
Ribbing - Gold tinsel
Body - Yellow floss
Hackle - Deep yellow
Wing - Widgeon or gray mallard ***

Trout - Ray Bergman

Don Bastian Notes

* The gold tinsel tag is not listed in the Trout recipe, but it is visible on the color plate.
** The written recipe for the tail is ‘yellow and black-alternate.’ Differing from the usual listing for a married tail, Dr. Burke’s painting indicates a separation at the end of the tail, revealing a married tail of yellow and black with left and right sides.
*** The wing may also be teal.

"Bob?" I thought his name was "Chunky Monkey." Maybe that's what he eats?

That’s my dropper on N. Georgia pocket water. I use brown beads but that looks amazing. I add a piece of flash on the collar.
