| Kommentar: According to Trey Combs, the ’Rajah’ was first tied in 1967 by Arthur Solomon of Spokane, WA. This colorful, yet subtle Steelhead pattern is ideal for low-water conditions and has also proven to be very effective for Dolly Varden and Silver Salmon. |

| Kommentar: The ”Bug” is the creation of Marc Madore, a professional guide and Master fly tyer from Canada. While this pattern was designed for the famed Miramichi river, its grub-like qualities would make it a great damp fly for Pacific Northwest Salmon and Steelhead. |
