Tying Steelhead Intruders On A Budget

[@KevinHospodar]

Great Video - "Fish flies you like" - YES! - I think the terminal stuff is the most spendy - shanks + hooks - Ostrich, ice dub, flash, schlepped, marabou - thats all you need

Outstanding video...thanks, Jason.

Dumb question but what are you tying on? It looks like a triangular file. New to tube flies.

[@theportlandflyshop]

Not dumb at all. It's a tube needle, made specifically for tube flies. Each brand will have their own to fit their specific tube. The Aqua Flies and Pro Tube are the only ones I know of that are the same.

You can get the tubing at a craft store clear and black for the ultra rig

[@theportlandflyshop]

Not sure if it's the same or not. The stuff aqua uses comes out of the medical field from what I understand. As long as it works...

Totally new to tube flies, but are you looking for rigid tubing or is it flexible? Great video!

​@@evanhogan9219flexible. Tubes can break in cold winter Temps. Actually, it's common with some tube brands. The flexibility keeps your fly together, even in the coldest temps
