Sunset Fly
Sunset fly. Tied by Adrian Hope Attached is the sunset fly, a pattern we use to search the shore of Great Lake, in shallow rough water. It will usually represent forage fish. Cast out and drawn back 8″ to 12″ at a time with a short pause will nearly always catch a fish.
Hook: Streamer hook 2X long, size 8 or 10
Thread: Black 6/0
Tail: Black fine hair, mink or squirrel.
Body: Yellow dyed cock hackle, then orange dyed cock .(use cock hackles because they隆炉re longer and easier to match to the length of the hook)
