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:

Lauri Syrjänen defined this pattern having some features of Black Wave as well as Green Butt. Anyway my fishing mate Keijo Torssonen took 11,2 kg Salmon at Alaköngäs in River Teno.
The original size was #1 Single Salmon that was excellent for smaller Salmons at night.
