About This Fly

 

Description

The Buck Tail Coachman Fly Pattern is tied on TMC, Mustad, Saber, Daiichi, Tiemco, or Orvis hooks in sizes 2-10 using Black 6/0 pre waxed thread. This fly pattern is tied with a tail of red hackle fibers, a butt of peacock herl, a rib of copper wire, a body of red wool yarn, a shoulder of peacock herl, a brown hackle, a wing of white buck tail, and painted yellow and black eyes.

Where and When To Fish This Fly

Streamers, Bucktails, and Sculpins Fly Patterns are used in every area of the US, Canada, New Zealand, South America, Australia and Europe. These Patterns are both Wet and Dry, imitating insects that are both in the air and in the water.

Most of the Streamer, Bucktail and Sculpin Fly Patterns don't imitate any of the insect life that is found in or around the waters we fish. To the fish, these patterns look like schools of small bait fish and individual shiners.

Other ways of course include talking to other anglers, joining the local Trout Unlimited Chapter and asking the members, and making a stop in the local fly shop. If you only fish your local waters, you will get to know what flies work on each body of water, at what time of year. If you travel, carry lots of different patterns with you, or call ahead to the guide you will be using and ask what you should bring for fly patterns.

What Will this Fly Catch

Depending on where you are, Streamers, Bucktails, and Sculpins Fly Patterns have been successful in catching a large variety of fish. Streamers, Bucktails, and Sculpins Fly Patterns have been used to catch Rainbow Trout, Cut Throat Trout, Brown Trout, Lake Trout, Grayling, Whitefish, Brook Trout, Dolly Varden, Squaw Fish, and Bull Trout.
