Fall Favorite
This pattern was created by Lloyd Silvius of Eureka, CA in 1946 to fish for the fall run of Steelhead on the Eel River. It has since become a productive pattern wherever and whenever Steelhead run. It is truly one of the most effective patterns ever made and belongs on anyone's top 10 list of patterns. Especially productive in low water.
