Alaska Rainbow Trout
and Salmon Fishing.

So, you're planning a trip to Alaska and need to know exactly what flies produce results in Alaskan streams and lakes? These are tried and true patterns and specially tied for the Alaskan fisheries. This is what we use. There is no speculation here, these flies get the job done. When the big fish are in, you will need more than 'a couple'. These are BIG fish and you will definitely donate some flies to them or you will just plain wear them out on the fish. You just spent a fortune to fish Alaska, don't get tight with the $ now. Once you are in Alaska these may be hard to get. Got a tall tale about your trip to Alaska and how many fish you caught and even have pictures to prove it. Tell us all about it here. |

This little jewel is our TAegg pattern and will catch rainbow, dollies, char, grayling, and salmon. It represents a single egg that has gotten loose from it's future brothers and sisters. With the large salmon and rainbow you have to be careful just because of the size of this fly. Fish along the bottom behind spawning salmon. It also effective just fished 'in the wild'. | |
 |
Our TAmary is a general purpose streamer that can be used on the salmon, rainbow, char and dollies. This particular pattern is good for sockeye also since it is lightly tied and of good size. Fish for sockeye using the method mentioned here. Otherwise fish it as you would any streamer. | |
 |
Our TAeggsucker is tied to resemble a leach with and egg in its mouth. Will catch all of the species, particularly the larger rainbow. Fish the same as the TAegg pattern. It drives other fish crazy to think that this little leech has something they want. We're sure you have seen this behavior before with other feeding species. Fish this one deep also. | |

Yep, this is the old standby, our variation of the muddler, the TAmuddler. This version is slightly different than the original and can be fished dry, or below the surface. On the surface it represents a downed insect, below the surface, a sculpin. It is a killer for rainbow, dolly vardin, char and some salmon. Tied on a size 10 hook with only the finest of materials. Use in streams or lakes. Good anywhere, anytime. | |

This fly, the TAflesh is one that resembles the flesh of dying salmon and is a real treat for dollies and rainbow. Fished below an area where salmon are being cleaned or dying off, this pattern is deadly. Fished deep. This one is an absolute 'must have' for later season fishing in Alaska. Absolutely deadly on rainbow and dollies when fished behind spawning salmon. | |
 |
This large fly, the TAartic is the best with a weighted head. It is one of the most effective flies you can find. It appears to be 'swimming' when retrieved. This is not a small fly, and is a killer fly for rainbow, silvers, and other species. Fish it deep like a streamer. | |
