Spey Hackles - Chinook

By Bob Petti

Chinook Spey - An Original Pattern
A sparsely dressed fly with an effective combination of colors and subtle flash.

The Chinook Spey was based on another effective fishing fly, the Fatal Attraction. I took the same combination of colors, the use of gold flash, and applied these to the basic Syd Glasso hackle tip wing steelhead spey style.
