    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.

    The Golden Stone Perpetrator cleans house on early season trout when swung in the rivers of Bristol Bay. Cutts and Rainbows of Southeast, AK dig this pattern when fished in lakes and ponds. Don't forget steelhead too, they love a realistic buggy looking nymph, especially in low clear water. The Perpetrator is tied on a shank with a #6 trailing hook.

    Just about every species of trout or char in Alaska will go for the Beadhead Hares's Ear.  A standby pattern for trout, grayling or char.

    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.

    A real "go-to" pattern in late June and July. Try dropping a Micro May Fly or Lightning Bug off the back for rainbows. We have them in the "Big Boy" #10 size, too! Grayling love them all season long, as well.

    The Olive Beadhead Carey Bugger is a favorite of trout in the lakes. Our version of the Carey Bugger incorporates a hint of flash in this classic lake and stream fly. The small size and profile ideally matches leeches that trout and char love to gobble up. Make sure to have a few in you trout box.

    Rainbows, grayling and cutthroat are all suckers for a big dry fly now and then. Early season in the rivers or lake fishing any time, the Black Chernobyl Ant can be dead drifted or stripped with great success.

    Green Drakes are found in many rivers in Alaska and this Neversink version is a winner. It floats like a cork, has a profile trout love and is super realistic.

    Late August through September can have some great hatches of large mayflies known as Gray Drakes.  When these big guys are coming off, trout and grayling go to town.  The Hairwing Gray Drake is an awesome imitation that works well when large Parachute Adams are not.  This is also a great attractor pattern for doing dry/dropper rigs.

    Mid to late morning, it is not unusual for a PMD hatch to come off in Bristol Bay. The Sparkle Dun PMD in #14 is an excellent match and will often fool big rainbows.

    Alaskan trout in lakes can often be enticed with a big fly that is stripped in. They don't get much bigger or juicier than the Chernobyl Ant. This fly will leave you with a grin when that big trout, grayling or pike engulfs it.

    The #10 version is ideal for dry/dropper rigs or even dry/bead rigs. Make sure to have a few of these in your fly box for June and July trout fishing.

    Before the salmon start to spawn, bugs are the main food source. The little bit of flash on top of this nymph makes it a favorite of grayling and rainbows. We have them in the "Big Boy" #10 size, too!

    Take one of Alaska's most effective dry flies, the Adams, and combine it with a spun deerhair body for floatation and you have a winner. An absolutely awesome grayling fly.

    The Red Tail Mosquito is a custom pattern that grayling love. The bit of added attraction with the red tail entices grabs. Coastal cutthroat love this fly, too.

    The Fluorescent Green Royal Humpy is a high-floating western-style trout fly. Rainbow & cutthroat trout, as well as grayling love this fly. We love this fly in fast, boulder strewn pocket water or any time buoyancy is a must.
