Irideus Seelhead flies and the California King Salmon Run

Timothy's Twist Rubber Leg Egg Sucking Leech Steelhead flies tied on world class steelhead fly hooks. The orange rubber legs on these steelhead flies have proven to trigger aggressive takes from chrome steelhead and also the fish close to the headwaters. Picking steelhead flies for cold water leaves these Timothy Horner Signature Series steelhead flies at the top of the list.

The California King Salmon run is in full swing. As the egg laden salmon begin the life cycle again, eggs and Caddis Nymphs dug out from the beds are a feeding opportunity for Coastal steelhead on their way up river. The salmon serve as a chiefs for the steelhead we love and think about all year long. The salmon have reached protected areas and the wild steelhead are also protected here which leaves scenes like the one in the picture for steelhead fly fishers willing to go out on foot and search. This beautiful steelhead in the picture is enjoying the morning sun in shallow water. Steelhead will do this if left alone and not overpowered with commercial boats or crowds. Look away from the crowds and find your own perfect place. California steelhead fly fishing is alive and well with hope for a great future. We see the biologist and California Dept of Fish and Game behind the scene working on protecting the fish and the Feather & Sacramento  rivers . Thank you for preserving California's steelhead fly fishing future for generations to come!

With the passion of steelhead fishing we see many seasons and many places. Our own back yard is showing positive signs of a stellar year of steelhead fly fishing. The Feather and Sacramento Rivers in California could be called some of the best fly testing grounds in the world. With our Alaska efforts paying of with tube fly patterns and intruders we are now shifting to the natural feeding steelhead. We could call the flies above steelhead love flies for the Nothern California area and beyond. Our east coast steelhead fly fishing friends can also count on us for true steelhead fly success. We are going to be on a mission here very soon and hope to cross paths in NY with a few people. Have a great steelhead season and bring home the gear born out of a love for steelhead and the life cycle they lead. Catch and release wild steelhead and treat them with respect!
