Down and Out Steelhead and Bull Trout Streamer Fly Tying Tutorial

The Down and Out Steelhead and Bull Trout Streamer is equally at home tied on the end of your line if you are targeting Char or Steelhead in our local waters. This is a version of the fly we love here but this is a pattern that can be easily modified to suit your needs. You can easily articulate a fly like this to give it more movement or increase the size of your offering, and you can change the colours to simulate a sculpin or just make a gawdy attractor style fly to tempt a big steelhead to bite. Give this one a try and let us know what you think!
