Tiny pattern imitating newly hatched salmon fry still carrying their yolk sac. A deadly early-season pattern for rainbows and Dollies feeding in gravel spawning areas.

Pale pink/tan rabbit strip imitating decomposing salmon flesh drifting downstream after the spawn. The most important post-spawn pattern in Alaska's rainbow trout fishery.

Weighted version of the classic flesh fly with a brass or tungsten bead for faster sink rate. Gets down quickly in deep post-spawn pools where trophy rainbows hold.

Small, bright pink flesh-egg hybrid pattern developed specifically for the Iliamna drainage. Imitates both salmon eggs and small chunks of flesh that drift through post-spawn tributaries.

Realistic egg pattern with a contrasting dot of red or orange yarn in the center, imitating a fertilized or developing salmon egg. The blood dot trigger dramatically increases strike rates compared to plain eggs.

Hard acrylic or glass bead pegged two inches above a bare hook. The most realistic egg imitation available. Controversial in some circles, devastatingly effective in all of them.
