Michigan Stonefly Nymphs For Steelhead

Through the years I have come up with Stonefly patterns that really work.  I call them the old fly patterns.  If you can remember when your grandpa would take you fishing or you looked in his tackle box.  You might have seen theses pattern.  The wings are made form the old time straw ribbon.  They let some light go through the wings on the Stonefly Nymphs. Boy do they work!  The Black Flies with colored wings really catch the Rainbow trout(Steelhead).  Hell over high water is the name of the red and black stones.  When the water is high in early spring these are a go to fly.  At around 5 am in the morning before sunrise the yellow and green work very good. The raspberry and light blue  Fly patterns work well in the day light hours. If you would like to use these patterns you can buy them on ebay Gems of Michigan   Thank you Big Tim
