Flyfisherman´s Inari and Teno Rivers

The flies that recognized in the rivers Inari and Teno are useful for salmon year after year - by learning the conditions of each fly pattern of different weather, waterlevel, temperature and even surrounding nature. Every season brings out some hot patterns - that are no use for the next season. But a few of those hot patterns will outlast and become a popular pattern for several years.

Comments:

Hair winged Blue Charm in one of the Torvikoski patterns when river has a bluey color upstreams.

This hair winged pattern was born in the early 90s when I began to repair an old damashed fly and didn´t untie the whole body, so the rib was too short and could reach only for three laps on the original body. This is a good example of pattern that is developed by an accident.
