Trey Combs' Steelflash

From Trey:

"I developed the SteelFlash series flies to have a fly that neither absorbs nor traps water, has an abundance of flash, has tremendous action in the water, sinks a bit headfirst, and balances perfectly with a stinger hook riding up. The hook in this position doesn’t make the fly 100 perfect weed proof, but time after time I’ve cast the fly into a rock pile and watched it swim through without hanging up.

All my SteelFlash flies are tied on Partridge Intruder or Partridge Waddington shanks. Size: 20 to 25mm for summer-run steelhead, 35 to 45mm for winter runs, but this can be reversed depending on water conditions. Hook size: No. 6 and No. 4 for summer steelhead; No 2 for winter. The hook rides point up, the weight of the barbell eyes calibrated maintain that position by using 1/60-ounce on the smaller flies, and 1/40-ounce on the larger. The weight of the fly wet can be cast and controlled with my 6- or 7-weight Burkheimer summer-run rods and my 8-weights for winter fishing. All the rods range from 12 to 13 ½ feet."
