SKU: 6-F34395 Categories: ,

Many migrating salmon meet their end by bears. The eggs of a hen that don’t get 
eaten by the bear drift downstream in small clumps. For years, anglers have 
represented this clump with roe sacks, Corkies/yarn, or Oakie Drifters, etc. Now fly 
anglers have an option. This fly represents either a single egg with loose skein 
around it, or a small cluster of eggs. Tied on the trusted “Glo Bug” hook from 
Gamakatsu. The fly comes with either a 3.8mm or 4.6mm off-set tungsten bead so 
you can adapt to different water flows. This fly can be fished under an indicator like 
any egg pattern, but now Euro anglers can easily fish it too. Also, a 3.8mm tungsten 
bead weighs roughly the same as a lead “BB” shot and the 4.6mm tungsten bead is 
about the same as the 3/0 lead shot. These are the two most used lead shot when 
fishing beads. The colors represented here cover the range that eggs can take on. 
From the freshest, most vibrant to the opaque “dead” look. This fly looks okay dry, 
but absolutely amazing wet.
