NOTES: The fly was transformed from one of the Steelhead patterns, which has been kindly provided by tier Tanya Rooney from Portland, Oregon. Fly tied in typical Scandinavian tube fly style. As with all other tube flies it is equipped with soft silicone connector tubing, which easily releases fly from mouth of hooked fish, avoiding meeting of fly body with sharp teeth. Great Silver salmon taker.
