FAQs

What size fly should I use?

Size 18 is a good starting point for smaller rivers and clear water. Size 16 can be used in slightly higher water or for larger fish.

What is the best way to present this fly?

A downstream swing is very effective. Vary the depth of the fly by mending the line.

How should I store these flies?

Store the flies in a dry fly box to prevent rust and damage.

Can I use this fly for other species?

While designed for salmon, it can be effective for other predatory fish in certain conditions.

What type of leader material is recommended?

A fluorocarbon leader is recommended for its abrasion resistance and low visibility.

Troubleshooting

Fly not hooking fish.

Check hook sharpness. Ensure you are using the correct size and presentation for the current conditions. Adjust retrieval speed.

Fly tangling on the cast.

Check your leader for twists. Ensure your casting technique is smooth and doesn't generate slack.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective for low-water salmon fishing.
  • Streamlined design for improved casting.
  • Micro treble hook increases hookup rates.
  • Proven Sunray Shadow pattern.
  • Available in multiple sizes for versatility.

Cons

  • Requires careful size selection based on conditions.
  • Treble hooks may be less desirable in some catch-and-release scenarios.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Attach to Leader: Tie the fly securely to your leader using a strong knot such as a Turle knot or a loop knot for maximum action.
  2. Line Weight: Use a line weight appropriate for your rod and the size of the fly. A lighter line is often better for a delicate presentation.
  3. Check Hook Sharpness: Ensure the hook is sharp before each use. Sharpen if needed.
  4. Care: After use, rinse the fly in freshwater to remove any salt or debris. Store the flies dry in a fly box.
