This was a great tool fly or fished under a bobber (oops, I mean indicator) for winter steelhead in Eastern Oregon.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

I remember the hot fly there one year was a Green Pipe Cleaner wrapped around a hook! ;) And the Minam Store was out of pipe cleaners. :lol:
