Sol Duc Spey Fly Tying - Sean Dahlquist

Our friend and acclaimed fly tier Sean Dahlquist demonstrates how to tie Syd Glasso’s classic fly pattern the Sol Duc Spey.
Originally developed here on the Olympic Peninsula for winter steelhead, this pattern has seen use and success in all seasons.
Sean sticks close to the original design with a few of his own changes.
