Synopsis of Class
So far we have two classes in our fall steelhead series under our belt.  Egg patterns and nymph patterns were both fun classes.  We now move on to steelhead streamers.  Good streamer patterns are a must for any serious steelheader.  Indicator fishing with eggs or nymphs can be fun but if you want explosive hits then you have to be swinging streamers.

In this Saturday's tying class we will be focusing on four streamer patterns for steelhead.  These patterns are very productive in Michigan, Ohio and just about any other steelhead water in the Midwest.  Through out the class we will be discussing different ways to fish these flies.  If you want to have some serious fun on your next steelhead outing, learn to tie up some of these streamers.
