Friday Night Flies – Purple Spey
Friday Night Flies – Purple Spey
This is a bit of a freestyle spey pattern. I got a lot of inspiration for this one from Art Lindgren’s books and a lot of online sources. I just threw together what I had at home and came up with this pattern. I’m sure it will be a good pattern for winter steelhead and I can’t wait to swing it when the cold comes.
