- How To Tie An Trout Spey Sculpin - A quick and easy sculpin streamer for Trout Spey swinging. Trout Spey Fly Tying tutorial. SUBSCRIBE HERE: ruclips.net/user/subscription_...
Sculpins are a big part of a trout's diet. This Trout Spey Sculpin was designed to have the fewest "bulky" materials as possible. This fly is easy to cast, despite being tied with rabbit strips.
The rabbit strip I used for the tail in the Trout Spey Sculpin was actually cut down the middle to make it much thinner than 'normal' rabbit strips you would use on traditional sculpin fly patterns.
**This has been the fly I have been swinging the most for trout on the Kenai River during the month of April 2109. There are only two adjustments I would make to this fly after swinging it extensively: When tying the tail of this streamer to the "donor hook," you could shorten it a bit as the hook hangs quite far back (ideal for bigger fish). If you tend to fish for smaller fish, you'd want the hook a little closer to the donor hook. When tying the hook in, you can also tie the hook up and poke the point of the hook through the rabbit strip to keep it in place. **
The materials we used in this fly can be swapped out for your favorite sculpin and trout spey fly tying materials. We love greens, blacks, browns and whites for tying this trout spey pattern. We also suggest the use of some weight at the front of the head if your fishing conditions demand the use of weighted flies.
Tight Lines!

Another huge thank you to everyone who has supported our channel! This is quickly becoming a fly that we tie on regularly! The only thing I would change is maybe move the hook a little closer to the main body as the hook hangs quite far back. - And it is tied a little sloppily, but that's the nature of guides tying flies lol!
A touch sloppy but it'll swing like crazy!
It's refreshing to see videos of fly tying where the fly doesn't turn out perfect. You didn't edit it out and showed us a fly that will catch fish nonetheless. Thanks!
@@jdominique70 Thank you so much JD! This exact fly has boated some giants since I tied it in this video :) Proof that imperfect gets it done :D. Thank you for watching!
Great fly and solid tips: golf club brush, pipe cleaner, cut rabbit strips, Dacron braid, all solid.
Only thing I might add is small eyes
Thank you so so much! Yep, small eyes would be awesome on this one :)
Beautiful fly. This is how I tie my sculpins with power pro stingers. Sometimes I use pine squirrel zonkers instead of rabbit.
Same use the pine squirrel zonker, little easier to cast
Thank you so much! Yeah, I definitely love pine squirrel as well!
Dave, that is the best sculpin tie I’ve seen. Love the tie on the stinger.
Thank you so much Brian! It is definitely a good one!
Great looking pattern. Will have to get some of that angora goat dubbing. Thanks for the share!
Thanks for checking this one out! Yeah Angora Goat is my favorite material by far!
I like the pipe cleaner trick to hold fibers out of the way.
It's a life saver for sure!
Very nice fly, I like the rabbit loop are the head...cut down on the weight.
Thank you so much Lorne! Something about cutting down on bulk that really makes this one pretty swinmy!
Just awesome Dave. With my 6 wt Scandi intermediate sink, I could maybe roll this over. Will let you know.
Thank you Brian! This is one of my favorites so far :) If you split the rabbit strip, it will cast much better
This is a art not fishing you make it so easy cool
Thank you so much!
wow looking good Kudos
Thank you so much for watching Mark and for the kind words!
perfect streamer tankiou
Thank you so much!
I really like your style and fly tying sensibilities. Funny, I thought I was the only person to twist loop rabbit strips. I sometimes like to put more than one color on the loop to nice affect but not always. You're my kind of tier.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it! I will definitely try different color rabbit in loops!
Just a quick discovery I made on hook choice. I buy tiemco tmc 105 egg & flo bug hooks 2x strong in size 6 and smaller and bend the eye up. Since factory stingers hooks only go as low as size 4 this mod gives me the flexibility to make small intruder bunny strip leaches/intruder proportional. I've landed Olympic and BC steelhead with this hook with never a worry. Just passing it along. Tight lines....
@@surfallday6583 Oh man, thank you so much! That is super helpful :) Thank you again for checking out my videos!
I will now be buying some angora.
@@surfallday6583 It is definitely my favorite material by far :)
Nice! Amateur question: The braided line will not pull out of the waddington shank if you're fighting a big chinook in the current? Looks like there's only thread holding it down and no knot. Cheers.
Hey Lindsey! Thank you for the question! If you double the braid back through the front eye of the shank and back down the shank, it will definitely not pull out. I suppose it all depends on the fish you are chasing. Most of mine I double back to make sure it doesn't happen. Here's how I do it: ruclips.net/video/hvcFF4F0ZFQ/видео.html Thank you for the question and for watching!
If you also check at 5:25 you'll see how I double it back in this video to keep from that happening :)
Right. So he was stressing use enuf thread to insure strength, and quality.
If you're gonna worry about that, you might as well be concerned about falling in, line breaking, fish... Etc.
Dave,
At least two of the flies that I will be sending up your way are my variations of this Sculpin fly. Just curious as to what color your native Sculpin are in the rivers you fish ?? Ours in Michigan are a brownish mottled color, so mine have that coloring. I will most likely be tying them up tonight. I will let you know when I send out the flies. David M. Clunk - Fisher-of-Men Fly Tying.
They are sort of a darker olive-ish color
Killer!
Thanks man! Been getting a lot on this one lately :)
Nice easy tie , guide flies don’t have to be perfect they just have to catch fish :-)
Is the orange in back important?
It's generally known as a "hot spot". Sometimes it helps as an attractor in flies (or at least we think so lol)
I like what you tie!
How do I buy some?
Shoot me an email at cooperlandingguide@gmail.com
Thank you for watching!
Very nice
Thank you Allen! That really means a lot!
Stupid question but why use a shank/cotter pin instead of a hook?
Generally, due to the "short strike" nature of some fish on the swing. Mostly trying to make the fly longer, while also being able to have a shorter shank hook so the fish don't have leverage that they would normally have with a longer shanked hook. It also gives the fly much more movement.
@@CooperLandingFishingGuide i asked because i have started tying double hook 1 and rear 6 rear articulated streamers couldnt see why a shank would be a better choice than a hook and still not sure. Spey flies remind me of the old school NY eaatern double hook streamers in contrast to the west double hook using fine cable between hooks.
@@GregariousAntithesis Ah gotcha! You could absolutely do that for sure. Up here in Alaska, multiple hooks are illegal in most waterways, so if the front "shank" were actually a hook, you could just cut off the hook (that's how these types of flies were originally tied) - with a donor hook as the front part of the fly :)
@@CooperLandingFishingGuide now that is some crazy shit. Illegal to have multiple hooks. I get not using treble hooks for obvious reasons but not multiple single hooks that doesnt even make sense why that would be an issue. Pure irony when you consider commercial fishing and bycatch.

Not easy - well, no fly is easy. This is a kick into Netherworlds. Counted 43 steps.
Well we appreciate your feedback and for watching for sure!
