Trout Spey Intruder

How To Tie A Trout Spey Intruder - a quick and easy Mini Trout Intruder Streamer Fly. Trout Spey Fly Tying tutorial.
The intruder fly was popularized by Pacific Northwest steelhead anglers and mini or micro intruders are becoming very popular among trout spey anglers and fly tiers. Not only are these Mini Intruders easy to tie, they are also very effective at catching trout.

The larger profile, yet minimal design allows for easier casting than more bulky trout spey streamers.

The materials we used in this fly can be swapped out for your favorite intruder materials. We love greens, blacks, browns and whites for tying this pattern. We also suggest the use of some weight at the front of the head if your fishing conditions demand the use of weighted flies.

I happened to us a lot of Pheasant materials for this fly, but substitutes will still make this fly a great one for swinging for trout. You can also use a forward hackle at the very end to protect the marabou and add even more water pushing characteristics.

Tight Lines!

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
