    Black is the first color to try in Alaskan lakes. A beadhead black bugger with a little flash will get the job done. This is also a classic standby river pattern for trout, char and grayling.

    The Purple & Chartreuse is a prime color for steelhead glo bugs. If you are fishing the Situk River in Yakutat, these are standard issue. We are now having our Steelhead Glo Bugs custom tied on a stout Aqua Talon hook. An Alaska Fly Fishing Goods exclusive. You won't bend these out on big fish!

    The Renegade #16 is a classic dry fly that is uber stealthy and one of our go to options for when the fish are wary and the conditions are difficult.

    Cutthroat trout love pink worm flies! Designed to ride hook up, the Pool Noodle resists getting snagged on branches, the bottom, weeds and rocks. RIO's Pool Noodle was designed after a Montana trip when a similar worm fly was working great but constantly getting hung up. Heavy and riding point up, this fly is going to be a go-to for your nymph rig.

    Chubby Chernobyl's float high, imitate a number of different insects on the surface, and are very life like on the water.  You can drop a nymph (or bead!) off the back of them, and they drive trout crazy.

    Alaska has some big damsel flies and trout love to eat them. And is there anything cooler than seeing a big old trout nose come up and eat one of these? We love this damsel because it is durable and the rubber legs quiver at the slightest motion. Hang on!

    It is hard to beat this fly for Alaska dry fly fishing. The foam belly and foam top shell keep it floating high while the hackle and rubber legs give it life like attraction. And the split poly wing makes keep track of your drift a breeze.

    The Gumdropper is a versatile little fly that can be fished in a variety of ways for trout and grayling. We love stripping it slowly in lakes for cutthroat. It also can be fished under an indicator (or big dry fly) as a fat emerger. It is also a perfect little swinging fly on your trout Spey rod! The matte black tungsten bead really gets it down in the strike zone, too.

    Chubby Chernobyl’s float high, imitate a number of different insects on the surface, are very lifelike on the water.  You can drop a nymph (or bead!) off the back of them, and they drive trout crazy.

    The Chernobyl Ant Black Red is just the ticket when you need a high-floating, attractor-style dry fly.  The red under body is like a bullseye for trout (especially cutthroat!) and the orange & white "sighters" on top make tracking this fly in the water simple.

    During those times when grayling and rainbows get ultra fussy, the Griffith's Gnat can save the day. The CDC tuft on this fly makes seeing this tiny little fly a whole lot easier.

    We should rename this fly the Cutthroat Krystal Bugger! Cutts love orange and this bite-sized morsel is just the ticket for them. It fishes really well in both creeks and lakes. At just over 1" in length it is stealthy but still attracts their attention.

    When you need a small bugger to mimic a lake leech or other small aquatic creature, check out the Olive Krystal Bugger in #12. At just over 1 inch in total length it is stealthy but still big enough to attract a trout.

    The most famous fly in Alaska and rightfully so. The Black Egg Sucking Leech is particularly deadly on steelhead or salmon that don't want a bright colored fly. A good change-up fly to have in the box.

    Trout and grayling in Alaska love caddis flies. And nothing in nature shimmers like peacock. This elk hair caddis with a peacock body is a killer. Small and stealthy but with enough iridescence to attract fish.

    The most famous fly in Alaska and rightfully so! The Egg Sucking Leech has probably accounted for more fish landed than any other fly in Alaska. In smaller sizes it is a trout and Dolly Varden favorite. In #2 or #4 it is a salmon slayer.

    The original Copper Johns are just effective as ever. After the spring fry migration and before the late summer egg drop this is a killer rainbow fly. This late-June through July window provides the best opportunity to fish traditional dries and nymphs. Grayling will jump on this fly all summer, too.

    Buggy and not too flashy is a great way to catch spooky fish. Trout and grayling that are a little spooky will often go for a more subdued pattern like the classic Beadhead Pheasant Tail.
