Clear water and bright sun… not always easy conditions for salmon, steelhead or seatrout ☀️

🎣A Go-To Streamer for Big Trout in Rivers 🎣

Sculpin patterns are honestly some of the most effective flies out there if you’re targeting big trout in rivers. They push water, have a strong profile, and fish tend to hit them hard.

This Squirrel Sculpin Munker is one of those flies that just makes sense. Simple, full of movement, and really alive in the water.

In the video, Elias Kunosson ties and fishes it in his home waters up in Swedish Lapland – around Ammarnäs. It’s exactly the kind of pattern you’d want when you’re hunting bigger fish.

You can clearly see the inspiration from guys like Micke Lindström, Emil Westrin and Kim Sørensen in the overall look and feel.

If you’re into streamers, fly tying, or just Scandinavian-style patterns, this one’s definitely worth a look.

Thunder & Lightning Variant - flytying tutorial by Lars Chr. Bentsen

The Thunder and Lightning was once known as the "Great Storm fly," deriving its name from the fact that in its early days it was universally used when the water was rising after a storm. At this time the appetite of the salmon or grilse is thought to be more keen, and with the proper fly success more probable. But of late other patterns have become more valued for this state of the water, and the Thunder and Lightning is considered best to raise fish in low clear water, or for autumn fishing. In this video Lars Chr. Bendtsen ties his version of one of the most classic salmon flies - but this time on a tube.

RAW CF Baitfish by Morten Valeur

Baitfishpatterns is the key for getting in touch with the big predators lurking in the water, but when tying big streamers you often end up with a heavy and compact fly. In this video Morten Valeur from Ahrex Hooks will demonstrate some techniques to aviod that, and show one of his favorite flies for his beloved big trout streamer fishing in northern Sweden.

He says about the fly: "The RAW CF Baitfish is either tied on the TP610 for all my freshwaterfishing for big trouts, or if I fish saltwater I use the SA210 Bob Clouser Signature. The flies are weighted with the small bead from Pro Sportfisher called Pro Raw Weight that works as a bulp helping the lift of the wingmaterial, and due to the tungsten-material it really gets the fly down where the fish is lurking. The synthetic Craft Fur is beeing tied both normal and reversed for a "hollow" style, making it easy to tie a quite big fly, that is still able to cast and fish for a whole day - offcourse until a big trout disturbes the peace". And finally it is finished off with some matching Pro Cool Eyes - give it a try.

Hook: Ahrex TP610 Trout Predator #1/0 or #1

Brown Matuka - by Håkan Karsnäser

Fly fishing involves trying to imitate the fish's food on a hook, using wire, feather and hair. Many times it is about small insects in different stages, which are the main food for many fish. But larger predatory fish prefer to eat small fish and fish fry. To imitate these swaps, we usually use streamers in different designs. Many streamers consist of a body and a wing, which is a simple and often effective way to imitate small fish. However, they have a disadvantage and that is that the wing often snaps and hooks on the hook bend when you cast the fly, which means that the fly does not move correctly in the water. To remedy this, a fly was developed in New Zealand in which the wing is tied along the back, using a metal wire or tinsel. In this way, the fly got the right profile, but it was avoided that the fly moved incorrectly in the water due to the wing getting hooked. In this video Håkan Karsnäser will be demonstrating a very effectice pattern for chasing the big trouts – the Brown Matuka.

Hook: Core 1710 Nymph # 2
Thread: Uni 8/0, Brown
Rib: Cobber Wire
Body: Arizona Semi Seal Dubbing, Grey Olive
Wing: Whiting Coq De Leon Hen Cape hackles, Golden Olive
Fins: Partridge feathers
