Yardstick Flesh

The Yardstick Flesh by RIO is an exceptional pattern designed to mimic decaying salmon flesh drifting downstream, a critical food source for trout, Arctic char, and other predatory fish during and after the salmon spawning season. This fly combines natural movement and a realistic profile, making it an essential addition to your box for fishing in salmon-rich waters.

Fish the Yardstick Flesh by casting it upstream and allowing it to dead drift naturally with the current, keeping the line slack for a realistic presentation. In slower water, add subtle twitches to simulate the erratic motion of drifting debris. Focus on areas below salmon redds or in deep pools where predatory fish gather to feed on drifting flesh and eggs.
