Sex Dungeon
Kelly Galloup's articulated streamer is designed to provoke territorial aggression from large brown trout. This big, flashy fly pushes water and triggers reaction strikes. Fish it on sinking tips along cut banks and boulder structure.
Zuddler
A versatile sculpin-meets-Muddler pattern that works fished slow or fast, deep or shallow. The spun deer hair head creates surface disturbance when stripped and can be dead-drifted like a large nymph.
