Fly Tying the Dolly Lama Streamer for Large Trout & Salmon

The Dolly Lama has been an Alaska fishery staple for quite some time and anglers in the lower 48 are finally discovering how effective it is for large fish. Olive/White is great for trout. We also like Black/White, all White, and Black/Olive. For salmon, try Pink/Chartreuse and Pink/White.

Great video, really like the way you sequence threading the shank eye with setting the conehead. Slick.

I’ll just keep buying this fly for now lol.

For me it’s tiny dry flies. I feel incredibly unproductive tying size 20 dries when I’ve tied for an hour and have so little to show for it!

@@Gigharborflyshop I just took my first fly tying class yesterday, I can now understand the work that goes into some of these flys.

Why did u cut the primary hook off? Wouldn't that mess up the hook set? Most fish eat pray head 1st

[@Gigharborflyshop]

For trout fishing, since it's mostly catch and release, a single hook is going to be kinder on the fish. I agree with predators eating bait headfirst, especially if there's eyes on it!
