The Hartwick's Flashtail Tube series is tied in a style to provide a lot of flash and a moderate size profile. A brass cone is used to hold the marabou in a position so the profile will not collapse.

Great Tie, and this is a Steelhead catcher! Also good for Salmon.

A larger version of our standard intruder, but tied on a tube, the Chinook Intruder is approximately 4” in length. Using a generous amount of flash and UV enhanced ostrich and schlappen, this intruder is sure to anger a chinook into striking the fly. Rigged with a stout ring eye black nickel hook.

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 version of the original Skagit Leech tied by Grabflies. The original version was tied with a hidden .25" nickle bead. The hidden bead helps prop up the Marabou which has stiff Prop Hackle in front of it. The fly swims different, and snags less as the bead will not snag on rocks. This design has heavy wire wrapped underneath a prop ball then wrapped over with diamond braid. See second photo.

Looking thru my website you will see many variations and evolution of this fly. This is my latest, 2-18-2021. This variation uses Ostrich in the rear of this fly like the Neo Skagit Ostrich Leech, Methow , before that is rabbit prop ball (flor. blue) to keep Ostrich from collapsing - giving fly more profile and movement. Then Holographic Flashabou, Marabou, Grizzly feathers, and then black cross cut rabbit collar, finished with Flashabou and barred Voodoo fibers.

Red Two Toned King Salmon Flash Moal Leech

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.

The combination of rabbit fur which has incredible life in the water and flashabou creates an illuminated attraction for fish. A real winner!

Two hooks size: Size 2 (recommended works better) Size 1/0 for huge Salmon that may bend your hook - only on four inch flies.

Greg's Kriller

Constructed on the banks of the Kanektok River the killer krill, or Kriller, was designed for maximum castabilty as well as its flaring motion when swinging across hydraulic “fences” in the water column. With the weight of the dumbbell eyes at the back of the shank, the Kriller swings deep with more of a downward-diagonal profile than most traditional patterns. A devouring size for both chrome Chinook and Steelhead, having the eyes closer to the hook attracts some of the most aggressive eats you can find near tidewater!

Neo Skagit Leech, Methow CW is now the design tie as: RM Skagit Leech, Methow CW

Cast RIO's Hare Snare into the mix, let it sink into the zone, then retrieve the fly so it jigs up and down on the way back to you -  Don't overlook this fly for winter steelhead or for the big boys in Tierra Del Fuego.
