Different fish species respond to particular patterns at different times of year in different locations. It's all about what the fish happen to be eating at the time you're fishing. J. Stockard Fly Fishing has the fly tyinggear you need to tie flies to target whatever you're angling for, from essential trout, bass, and salmon to exciting pike, musky, tarpon, and everything else. For trout, effective patterns include woolly buggers, pheasant tail nymphs, and hare’s ear nymphs, which use materials like saddle hackle, tungsten beads, and rabbit fur. Bass, on the other hand, are often attracted to larger streamers tied with bucktail or synthetic foam poppers. For salmon and other saltwater species, consider being ready with shrimp and tube flies made with some of our synthetic fibers. Our diverse inventory makes it easy to find the perfect materials for any species.
