A Pair of Riachs...

9/24/2016

 
Since I've announced the closing of our web shop/online catalog, I've been swamped with orders. Filling feather orders in addition to working a 50 hour a week day job has lead to a bit of burn out.  I needed to take a break today, and decided to tie a fly I've had on my mind for a couple of years.   It's called the "Steelhead Riach".. 
Picture
It's pictured with the classic "Gold Riach" spey fly.  The dressing for the Steehead version is as follows:

STEELHEAD RIACH
Body:  Rear third, UV Pink wool yarn, front 2/3 UV Purple wool yarn
Rib:  Flat medium silver and fine oval silver on each side
Hackle:  Purple Schlappen
Throat:  Teal
Wing:  Purple dyed Mottled turkey tail with Bronze mallard over

I'd also like to thank everyone for the support these last few years with our business.  I will miss being your supplier, but I'm looking forward to spending more time with my family and doing some fishing and tying.  All the best,  AO
