Flyfisherman´s Inari and Teno Rivers - Asko Jaakola

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. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Olive chicken

Comments:

I got two skunk pours and had to try the features of skunk hair. Stiffness of the hair is between Squirrel and Polar Fox and therefore acceptable for flow of Inari and Teno Rivers, Polar Fox is too soft for these rivers, so I don´t use it at all. This pattern has been designed for rainy weather in the beginning of June.
