Have you gotten out on the river yet after the pinks quad? This fly in pink could be what you need on a little 6 wgt switch rod.

Seriously for Coho? I would not have thought of that, maybe in a green & black color scheme?

Do you know how to tie them or have you seen any good videos? I am pretty sure I have all the ingredients just need to take the time to study up and then get a few tied.

Looks like a good one for Coho's to me. I've caught plenty on purple feathers. it should work great! Lots of wiggly's and sparklies.

Jim be sure to post some pictures of your flies after you tie up a few. Would you be willing to sell a few?

I fished the Snoho. for the first time this year, a couple nights ago. Got one large buck. I'd so much rather catch one on a fly rod though.
Gonna hit the Yak/Teanaway confluence early Sat. AM. For the first time I'm going to using Dick Nites and/or jigs/float. Seems a little funny to just be getting into that...

Put away those Dick Nites, keep that fly rod out!!! I went down to the duwamish 3 times this last week and swang fish after fish until I thought my arms were going to fall off. Last night I finally pulled out my first Silver of the year which has been driving me crazy... I hate humpie years but you will never hear me say that when I am out there harassin dem humpers.
