These Soft Milking Egg patterns duplicate real fish eggs when drifting in the water current. Walt developed & created various color & size combinations to duplicate realistic colors for the different species of trout, salmon, & sucker spawn eggs.
Walt shows you how to tie Soft Milking Egg with 15 different colors & 6 different sizes and configurations from his small 2x2 mm double row Soft Sucker Spawn OS-3 flies on tiny #18 thru #10 hooks and more.
About the Author:
Walt Mueller, Jr. aka The Otter (always in the water and usually catching fish) has been an avid fly tyer and fisherman for over 50 years and resides along the Blue River in the Colorado Rockies. While also known for his many small nymph patterns, he has the distinction of developing and marketing the original Soft Milking Egg fly patterns. While he initially developed these realistic and highly effective milking egg patterns for the Great Lakes steelhead areas that he fishes, they have also proven to be exceptional flies for all the cold water fish species.
