Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Attaching the Fly: Attach the fly securely to your leader using a suitable knot, such as a loop knot, to allow for natural movement.
  2. Line and Leader: Use appropriate weight fly lines and leaders that match the size of the fly and the expected size of the salmon. Generally, a leader of 9-12 feet is suitable.
  3. Casting: Cast the fly upstream or across-stream, allowing it to drift naturally with the current. Mend your line to control the drift and maintain a natural presentation.
  4. Retrieval: Vary your retrieval speed to find what works best. Often a slow, steady retrieve or a series of short strips is effective.
  5. Storage: After use, rinse the fly with fresh water to remove any salt or debris and allow it to air dry. Store the fly in a fly box to protect the hooks and maintain the fly's shape. Inspect the hook for sharpness before each use. If the hook point is dull, replace the fly or sharpen the hook with a hook file.
