The BEST Tubefly for Atlantic Salmon?

This video is about fly tying the FutureFly Zonker Tubefly. This is a very effective and beautiful tube fly tied for Atlantic Salmon. You can use this way of tying a tubefly and combine different colors to suit your fishing, fish and rivers. This pattern is also great for steelhead when tied in this size or a bit larger. Tie these tubeflies smaller for Seatrout and Trout alike!
The American Opossum is the very best material for zonker flies due to the very thin leather and longer hair ranging from 3-5cm.

How do you rig this fly? Do you add any junction tubing & what sort of hook would you suggest?

[@maarten846]

Hi Jorge, just some tubing over the hook so it rides perfectly straight. It is not connected to the fly.
