Description

THE PATTERN The yellowish fly is ever so popular. This has been a “secret weapon” in coloured water, but also works well on the sunny day with just a bit of tint of colour to the water. Don’t be afraid to leave the orange fly to this clearer appearance, it loves the humus coloured water. We fish it normally quite small from 4-8 cm. Mikael very often leaves out the rubber legs, in fact for him rubber legs seem to attract the sea trout more than the salmon. The Half turbo gives this excellent fly a medium broad profile.

Field Notes

Pattern pack for tying or assembling a classic salmon/sea trout fly in yellow and orange tones. The description says it works well in coloured or humus-tinted water and can also be effective on sunny days with a slight tint to the water. The included materials suggest it is intended for fly tying rather than fishing as a finished lure.

Pros

  • Versatile color scheme for stained or lightly tinted water
  • Includes a broad range of fly-tying materials and a storage wallet
  • Designed for sea trout and salmon patterns

Cons

  • Not a ready-to-fish lure
  • Effectiveness may drop in very clear water compared with the intended stained-water use
