Just curious how nayat is to work with. I have been thinking about using it for some trout streamers.Well, I can't compete with the fashion side of things like I'm seeing on here recently, so I'm going for function alone with zero fashion.
I seem to keep getting my nayat steelhead flash strippers right at 4", so I guess I'm fishin' 4" next time out. Basically just looking for the same jerk bait type action I shoot for with most of my smallie baitfish patterns....This basic style has been tried and true in that regard.

The fiber is thin like fox, longer than buck tails. It does not flare like buck tails and is much more flexible like craft fur.Just curious how nayat is to work with. I have been thinking about using it for some trout streamers.
Really nice flies! Third from the top and second from the bottom (steelhead cricket?) Look amazing to me.
What kind of quill?
Those are sweet - as usual @clarkmanWell, I can't compete with the fashion side of things like I'm seeing on here recently, so I'm going for function alone with zero fashion.

For some of my smallie flies I do. Makes the kick harder. These I didn't.Those are sweet - as usual @clarkman
Do you put a floaty in all of this style or just some?
