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.

A variant of Timberman (Timberman is a 30..40 mm long black gnat that likes pine trees) for fine sunny weather designed by Seppo Turunen. I usually use black head, because it makes this pattern available for cloudy but dry weather.
