IN ADDITION TO THE STANDARD TIES, favoured flies of club members are as diverse as the fish we endeavour to entice to our offerings… rainbow, cutthroat and bull trout, dolly varden, steelhead, salmon – fresh and salt, bass and other species.
If we had to pick ‘only one’ to angle for our favoured quest, the following patterns reflect a personal treatise on imitating the ‘natural’…
| Fly Image | Club Member | Favourite Fly Pattern | Link to Pattern |
|---|---|---|
 | Arthur Lingren Lingren’s Indispensable | |
 | Richard Mayer Beady Eyed Pheasant An original design that evolved over time | |
 | Albert Sawchuk Doc Spratley | |
| Stephen Sawchuk Doc Spratley | |
 | John Simms Gold Muddler | |
| Chuck Vaugeois Doc Spratley | |
 | James White Thumper | |
 | Skip Young Skip’s Adams |
Links to our favourite flies are included featuring a pattern photo, dressing and tying instructions, the fish we pursue and angling techniques through specific seasons.
Favourite fly patterns for members not listed above will be added as and when the member submits their ‘one and only’.
Enjoy getting to know the LOONS… favoured flies!
