- This is a straight up LETHAL fly for Steelhead in the Great Lakes region. Materials: nomadanglers.com/blogs/fly-ty...
Great Lakes Steelhead forage on small shrimp, and this imitation works great in the rivers. Even though they don't live in the rivers, they recognize these shrimp from their time in the big lake. Fish it just like you would a nymph. It's an easy pattern to tie, with only 3 materials needed. Often times, showing the Steelhead something they haven't seen before can do the trick. We've caught a ton of fish on this wacky little bug, and hopefully you will too! Follow the link below to see a full materials list, and to purchase the stuff needed for this bug!

I tied up one of these(big mistake) to take on my trip I just came home from. Needless to say second cast steelhead crushed it, made a run, jumped and broke me off. Time to tie more for the box 🤣😁 thanks for the video
cool idea!
Very cool....Buffalo carp will love this! 😊

This pattern was a ringer on summer steelhead in Indiana. I modified it with orange cactus channel and sized it up to act as a streamer or big egg pattern and it was the only fly they wanted. Thanks boys
It’s been fantastic for us too!
Trail creek?
THAT'S a nice looking fly bud. It's going in my fly box. Cheers from Canada 🍻
It reminds me of a Michigan Wiggler variation.
Good pattern guys. Thanks
Instead of using McFlyFoam have you considered using the foam tubes as used for booby eyes? I was thinking if you cut a foam tube in half and use that in place of the McFlyFoam you’d have a floating fly. Then fish the fly on a sinking line and when retrieved the fly it would dart down. I think it might give a wee bit of a different presentation to swinging it or fishing on a floating line. It wouldn’t remain on the same plane or dart up on retrieval? Might even try tying them for stocked rainbow trout in Stillwater here in Scotland. Love the blog and have taken some ideas from your flies and adapted some of the regular Stillwater flies I use👍
Steelhead also eat mysis shrimp in the Great Lakes (perhaps these are the same as the bloody red shrimp) and that looks just like one.
Do you find this version fishes better compared to your version using Estaz, Pink Chinese Hackle, and McFly Foam for the tail? Thank you
Love the fly.
I’m hard of hearing, and the music in the background gave me some difficulty, just FYI

What size are the mono eyes? Thanks.
Same Concept as My Mysis. Different materials and larger.
Can you post recipe listing as well? Please and thank you.
