Ahh - terrifically long spey plumes - - enticing, but of course, not available for obvious reasons - thanks for the pictures. Those would make a wonderful 6 ought Salmon/Steelhead sly.

Those long strands flowing past the body- Steelhead cannot resits. Of course today, we use bleached chicken feathers - the bleaching removes the barbules that 'stitch' the individual strands together.

I do love tying special Steelhead (see-run rainbows trout) flies - hate tying trout flies so I buy those.

The record steelhead from BC waters runs around 43 pounds. My best was 24 pounds.
