Having recently experimented with trout snake flies I had an idea for some salmon and sea trout ones. These are not the traditional snakes tied with a long mylar body over braid and a hair wing. Mine are tied with rabbit zonker strips. A treble right in the tail and a salar double up front. I have seen a few salmon flies tied with zonker strips out back as a sort of long flowing tail. I could just see sea trout nipping at the tails of these with little or no hook ups. Take a look at these!!
Red salmon snake
The treble right in the tail will sort out any short takers.
Cascade Salmon Snake
The hooks are connected by a uv straggle twisted into a rope which forms the body.
Silver & Blue Sea Trout Snake
This facilitates lots of movement in the water. Blue and silver is a great combination for sea trout. The flies are finished off with some arctic fox and a little bling. They have a super profile!!
