The Fall Favorite is exactly what its name promises—the fly that California steelheaders reach for when autumn rivers fill with fish. A flowing red bucktail wing over hot orange hackle and a silver tinsel body: three materials, maximum visibility, zero pretense of imitation.
Born on the Eel River, the Fall Favorite is pure fall-run strategy. The silver body throws flash through tinted water, the red-orange wing matches the season's egg-and-aggression mood, and the simple construction swims true on any line. It remains a top producer for steelhead and salmon from California to Alaska.
Best for:
- Fall steelhead and salmon runs
- Tinted water where silver flash carries
- Classic swings on floating or sink-tip lines
📌 Pro Tip: The Fall Favorite earns its keep on overcast fall days with rain in the forecast—fresh fish moving on rising water hit its flash-and-flame combination with the kind of grabs that define the season.
