I'm sure this looks pretty similar to a lot of flies out there. It is put together matuka style with the bunny strip and then collar wrapped with a zonker strip around and through the dumbell eyes for a neat looking leech type presentation. This is a good one when the water starts to warm and the steedhead get more active, especially during the melt and early spring rains. Focus on the inside of creek bends where the water is a little calmer and fish don't have to work so hard in the current. They will be tight to the banks during that time too, so they can have some relation to the creek structure. The Niagara River steelies and lakers like this one too in White and Charteuse. Add a pink head for a little contrast. The steelhead really respond.
