The Bomber

The Steelhead Bomber- Created by The Reverend Elmer Smith in the 1960s for the Miramichi River in New Brunswick, Canada, has evolved into a timeless classic. Originally crafted for Atlantic salmon, it has proven itself to be one of the very best waking or skating dry flies. It is a must have wherever silvers and steelhead are known to chase flies on the surface. Bombers are now tied in an extensive array of color combinations.

Skating Technique: The Steelhead Bomber excels when skated across the water's surface, creating a wake that entices aggressive strikes from steelhead. Cast downstream and across, then maintain tension to allow the fly to skate naturally
