X leg Stone

This fly is one of the most productive flies for catching steelhead on the Bois Brule River. I like to use the bead head version as a point fly on a double fly rig. This is great for getting your rig down in front of the steelheads face.

This beautiful 28" steelhead was fooled by the chernobyl worm (pink worm) and gave me a hell of a battle . It took about 20 minutes to land this fish. A little long for my liking. I try not to fight the fish to exhaustion. Luckily someone helped me land this beast and the fish had plenty of spunk when I released him. Water temperature about 39 degrees and a bright sunny day. Flow was 205 cfs.

Fishing was a little slow but did manage to hook up with this Buck. He grabbed a rubber leg stone.
