One more heavy soft hackle/light spey fly coming out of West Yellowstone. Pretty much an upsized version of the Soft Hack Pheasant Tail only on a hook that will stand up to large trout and Steelhead. I like to run all these light spey sized soft hackles on a floating line with a light (2.6 fps) RIO sinking leader. Just enough to Break on Through the film and into the kill zone. Once again, a little Copper bead helps drop into a faster current or deeper slot.
