## Description

Tarantula Stone/Salmonfly – 7 Colors

These Tarantula Stone/Salmonfly flies are on clearance, so some patterns may vary slightly in size and appearance, but they remain excellent fish-catching flies built to attract aggressive strikes from trout.

Also known as “Turk’s Tarantula,” this proven attractor pattern imitates a wide variety of large insects including caddisflies, salmonflies, stoneflies, and even hoppers. Its oversized buggy profile, heavy hackle, and high-floating design make it an outstanding searching pattern for rivers, freestone streams, and bank-feeding trout.

Despite the name, the Tarantula is less about imitating a spider and more about suggesting a large, hairy meal drifting naturally near the bank — exactly the kind of target big trout key in on during summer fishing conditions.
