PNW Munker Fly
The first fly I was commissioned to tie was for a guide on the Great Lakes. He wanted a rabbit wing with a muddler head on a tube! I was
nervous and new, and he was patient and kind. I immediately went to the internet looking for this type of fly I could simply copy, but didn’t find much. I eventually pieced together a couple ideas, and through my friends critiques, we ‘re-designed’ a pattern. The idea comes from Kim Sorenson’s Munker pattern. A killer Danish Atlantic Salmon and Seatrout fly. The muddler head style is a Davie Mcphail design, and I’ve yet to find a better way to tie a muddler head on a tube! This particular fly accounted for my first ever fish on my own tied fly, and my friends personal best steelhead on his home river! I couldn’t recommend the pattern enough, and I know you’ll be more than satisfied with the results!
• 3 inches long

The Sputnik Tube Intruder is a blend of traditional Intruder styling and European highlights. A fusion of natural and synthetic materials; Finn Raccoon, Arctic Fox, Ostrich, Predator Wrap and Marabou add to this flies swimming action. The Finn Raccoon wing is reminiscent of Scandi styles. Two stations similar to Intruders. A collar weight behind the front station helps to get the fly down. The Sputnik has great movement and a profile in the water that is irresistible to fish.

A custom design by Grabflies. Design idea came from combining the famous Skagit Minnow with the new Intruder style trailing hook. This fly has lots of action in the water with a large profile. This Neo Skagit Leech is a smaller version of the original Skagit Leech. It is tied with a hidden .25" nickle bead. The hidden bead helps prop up the Marabou which has stiff Guinea and Prop Hackle in front of it. The fly swims different, and snags less as the bead will not snag on rocks. This color pattern is very good for early winter Steelhead, Kalum River Winter Steelhead, and coastal Steelhead, and any where that pink does well. Size: 3 inches| Size 2 Owner hook (Now available with #1 OPST hook) Fly is tied and glued in every step of it's construction - tied to last.

A Moal Leech as good as it gets. Tied with hook holder to help prevent hook fouling, and natural Micro Barred Voodoo Fibers for legs.
Moal leeches are tied entirely on a string with a trailer hook at the back. This gives the fly greater action than a fly tied on a rigid hook. More fish are landed with the Moal fly as well. Custom Moal Leeches are tied by Grabflies.com in the good old USA. Moal's are tied using the best materials on the market and are tied to last (super glue, Braid line 20 LB (double over for 40 LB strength) and, quality Owner size 2 hook. Methow Moal Supreme CW (CW = Clear water) Size: 2.5 "
