Amazing intruder fly for the sea run trouts featuring super heavy dumbell eyes and was originally designed by Rob Crandall for steelhead fishing in the US. These flies are also extremely effective when fishing for sea run trout here in Iceland. If you are going for either spring or autumn sea trout fishing – be sure to have some of those with you!
This is how Rob Crandall describes this fly:
The best producing steelhead flies from long time guide Rob Crandall. The Devil’s Candy represents something that looks so sweet to steelhead they can’t resist. The combination of colors and unique way pulsing marabou is tied into this fly gets strong results from steelhead year round. If you were going to only have one steelhead fly this would be it!
Steelhead Flies that produce all year are hard to find, the Devils Candy is a pattern that yields results year round. We especially like it in low clear water during the winter/spring or as a go-to subsurface fly in summer and fall.
Quality materials help get the best results on our favorite patterns. The Devils Candy pattern is no exception. Quality hand tied flies with the best materials these flies last well and move and swim in the water.
