PARENTHESIS - Sea Trout and Salmon Flies

My Sea Trout Fly Tying Period





          I had a Sea Trout Fly tying period in the mid nineties. Was planning on fishing for sea trout since there are some nice locations along the coast here. I never got further than tying flies, experimenting quite a deal. So all these flies are unused. Some individual photos of some of the flies follows.





A Danish fly called Juletrae (Christmas tree) Wonder why?

Back in the old box again with other flies


          So I never actually started to fly fish for sea trout. In other words this fly tying just became a PARENTHESIS in my fly tying and fly fishing life. Hopefully this post might inspire some that use flies that are 4-5 inches long. I think these would do good fly fishing for both sea trout and salmon.

Have fun whatever way you choose to fly fish,
M.O.

Great looking streamers.
Some of them resemble the Supervisor, a deadly pattern.

Hi Brk Trt!
Thanks! These flies are mostly a result of trying different tying techniques. The only one that has a name, except for the tube fly, is the one with the second hook turned upwards. It's called "Sundets Blå" or in English something like "The Cove's Blue".
Best regards,
