A suggestion for summer sea trout

 A suggestion for summer sea trout.

by Kuba Chruszczewski

              Try this season a fly built in the intruder style. The materials used make it work vividly even in a lazy current, slowly guided. By the way, to practice an interesting and useful technique of building the trunk at once with a blackberry (or even several), called "composite loop". Of course, the fly can also be made traditionally, on a hook, or in a tube version.

1 I mount chain eyes to the shank, and a loop of steel braid with a hook.

 2 I tie a bunch (10-12 pieces) of ribbed rubber bands facing forward with the ends. I mask the place of tying with dubbing. I grip the whole thing with a clip, so that it does not interfere with further operations.

 3. I prepare the material for the trunk and the blackberries. I arrange the dubbing with the addition of flash, on top of this the rays of the ostrich feather and the wheelhouses of the diamond pheasant

 4 I place the entire package thus created in a loop of waxed leading thread.

 5. I twist by combing out with a needle and brush.

 6. I comb dubbing, flash and rays to one side.(This is what the "composite loop" technique looks like).

 7.I wind everything in tight coils on the shaft, all the time combing the material back and helping myself with a needle, so that the individual fibers and rays do not tangle and press each other against the shaft. I finish the head with a bit of dark dubbing.Trout intruder ready.

 8. and wet.
