Testing out how different colors come together on this fiery torpedo. I always try to tie up patterns I like in different colors to see how they come together. First of all it teaches you how colors come together, second it gives you practice on a pattern without repeating the same colors every time, recommended!

A simple, but very effective pattern that I have tied on anything from #12 down to #24, but mostly in sizes #14-#18. The variation possibilities on the body is great here and can be thread, dubbing, ultra wire rib on thread body and much more. Tie up to match different colors and sizes, it can’t go wrong



As mentioned: nothing would take, but I did find some potential great spots that is close to town!

Body: UNI Floss, Lagartun french tinsel
Hackle: Spirit River Schlappen Black
This was a freestyle with what I had on my table, but I really like how it came out: the fire in the tail will be a very good attractor for the salmon/seatrout and it will have good movements once it gets in the water. Will create some more of this color combination, and maybe with blue/lime tail as well.
