FERRY CANYON
HOW TO TIE THE FERRY CANYON STEELHEAD FLY
The Ferry Canyon is another one of the great steelhead flies developed by Randall Kaufmann on the Deschutes River in North Central Oregon. Named after a great stretch of steelhead water, the Ferry Canyon proves once again the power of purple in a steelhead pattern, and the Flashabou Accent underwing adds that little extra bump, especially under low light conditions. Try it early and late in the day!
