SAMURAI TUBES

I was asked to tie some Samurai Salmon Tubes. This tube fly pattern was created by the famous salmon fly fisherman Mikael Frödin from Sweden.

It’s his version of a Sunray Shadow. It’s not a complicated fly to tie, but a fly, where you can see the fishing potential from the first sight.

Three green variations and three black with a bit of purple and magenta flash.

Tube Fly Tying

My cam was lying next to me on my tying table and I made some quick pictures during tying. Just for fun. This is not really a step by step tutorial…

 

Another Tube Out Of The Vise

I was in the mood to tie a tube fly this morning. My friend, the famous dutch fly tyer André Miegies gave me a tube fly at the „Gronauer Lachstage“ this year in may. I loved the color combination  he uses and I had to try it myself. Here is the result. I got a good feeling, when I look at it…. ;-)

Thanks again André!

Natural Colored Pike Flies

Some articulated pike flies in natural colors tied on 4/0 hooks. I don’t know why, but I got a lot of faith in it at the moment.
