Classic Bucktail & Feather Streamers
This type of fly goes way back to the old days and were tied and fished with only trout in mind, but they will catch any fish in any water just as readily. They look fancy, but are easy to tie. Give them a go.
I learned some of these from Gary Borger’s book on ‘Long Flies’ as well as well as Mary Orvis Marbury’s famous book of flies…”Favorite Flies and Their Histories”.
