- www.opskagit.com | If you love the Intruder, check this out. This video provides step-by-step instructions on how Ben Paull ties a Micro Intruder. Tied on a size 10 streamer hook, this is a pretty small intruder, but you can tie them even smaller with these techniques and materials. And if you don't want to tie your own, we have Jonathan Farmer versions coming very soon. It's time to get out there and swing for trout. When trout take these they do not do it delicately.

Tied a couple dozen of these this spring with and without eyes in olive , natural . Brown and black . Primarily used them on the Madison , Missouri and Bighole they work great . Also tied some with a stinger hook snelled on with 12lb mono also work good . The combinations are endless , the joys of composite loops . Thanks for the video.
Nice video, ideal fly for conditions down-under in NZ. I'm off for a week on the Tongariro River so will busy myself to replicate as near as possible your Micro Intruder. Thanks.
Just tied some up. I have some nice cree hackle for the horns. Thanks for sharing, Ben. Love your videos!
fantastic, I will try that fly. Thank you for sharing
Great look :)
What hook was used here ? Looks like a long #10 ?
what grain head do you fish these with? Given the lead eyes...
it depends on the depth, i usually fish them with 4 grain.
sincerely:In the Riffle.
I can cast these with opsts lightest head (150 grain head). Pretty much every skagit and most scandi heads should cast this. This fly is very small and very light
Michael is right.
What makes a fly an intruder fly?
The intruder has 3 or 4 creators who think differently but the main two (ed ward and jerry french) would say 2 stations with dressing with sparation (like a tinsel body body in between each area)... Each station has a prop (i,e a ball of dubbing +maybe a small hackle artic fox,schlappen,saddle,etc) then you place ostrich ( or anyother large feather hackle ) in front.. So the balls of dubbing prop the ostrich (rhea, amherst tail etc) so it doesn't flaten in the current. Anything else isn't a true intruder just a shank fly
