Chartreuse UV Estaz Egg
The Estaz Egg has earned its reputation as a top-tier fly for targeting Great Lakes steelhead and salmon, and with good reason. This flashy, roe-imitating pattern produces consistent results across all major tributaries in NY, NJ, PA, OH, MI, and ON. Whether you're fishing fast-moving water or slow, deep pools, the Estaz Egg excels when drifted close to the bottom where fish are holding. I tie it in both weighted (brass bead) and unweighted versions, giving you the flexibility to adjust for depth and flow. If you’re fishing fall or winter runs, this is one fly you can count on to turn follows into solid hookups.
We have over 20 colors of Estaz Eggs available: Pearl Opal, Pearl UV, Peach, Peach UV, Peach Opal, Black, Black Opal, Black UV, Fl. Fire Orange/Red, Salmon Pink Opal, Chartreuse Opal, Chartreuse UV, Amber Orange Opal, Orange UV, Dark Blue Opal, Minnow Blue Opal, Fl. Pink Opal, Fl. Pink UV, Light Pink Opal, Bright Purple, Purple Opal, Deep Red, Deep Red Opal.
I use sturdy 2 extra extra-strong glo-bug hooks, double whip finishes, and cemented heads on the flies for extra durability.
