Fly Tying with Corey: Opal Spider

From Corey’s QEE series comes our next video fly tying tutorial: Corey's take on tying the Opal Spider pattern - a simple and flashy soft hackle or spider fly. This wet fly is just as effective as it is easy to tie. Fished on a tight light, swung through the current, or dead drifted, this pattern has been responsible for landing many nice resident brown and rainbow trout._x005F _x005F _x005F
