The Grab of a Steelhead on a swinging fly is like no other take for fly fishermen.
The most exciting aspect to steelhead fly fishing is the experience of "The Grab". The term has become a verbal noun for the sport describing and giving action to much more than just a steelhead take, or hit on a fly, but more of an adrenaline experience that defines the sport of fishing for steelhead on a swinging fly.
Some steelhead fly fishing purest have even gone as far as removing the hook point on their flies and fishing just for the grab.
Grab Flies was born out of respect for the mighty steelhead, and with creative innovation for the evolving gear used in the sport.
Steelhead Fly of the Winter Season:
BigMoal MT Leech
This hybrid Mega Moal Leech has become the new "go to" winter fly. Just like the Mega Moal this fly moves tough winter Steelhead. The BigMoal MT which is custom tied by Grabflies.com has caught Steelhead for Grabflies this winter after already fishing the run with a Mega Moal. The different accents and tail action seem to make that subtle difference. (Click here for more info/Buy)
