Alaskabou - Firetiger
The Alaskabou fly pattern was originally conceived by George Cook, and over the years, it has earned its place as a true steelhead staple. Since its first appearance, the pattern has been tied in countless colour combinations to match everything from glacial silt to tannin-stained water. Our Alaskabou flies feature a flashy tinsel body wrapped with palmered marabou, creating a lively, breathing profile in the current that has proven itself time and again on steelhead, trout, char, and salmon.
Firetiger has a chartreuse marabou core followed by yellow and orange palmered marabou.
- Tied on strong Tiemco hooks
- Unweighted for anglers who use split shot and sink tips
- Whip finished and cemented heads for extra tough flies
- Available in 4 sizes #2/0 down to #4
The Alaskabou is a perfect fly for fishing West Coast steelhead and salmon run, as well as the Great Lakes steelhead and salmon rivers. Check out our other colors of Alaskabou.
