The Steelhead Yellow Humpy is a high-floating, oversized attractor dry fly designed specifically for summer and fall steelhead in rivers where surface takes are possible. With a vivid yellow body, stacked elk hair wing, and dense hackle wrapped around a robust profile, this pattern creates maximum disturbance and visibility—making it ideal for skating or dead-drifting across choppy riffles, tailouts, and steelhead lies.
The bright color and exaggerated construction imitate a variety of large terrestrials and attractors while provoking curiosity or aggression strikes from surface-oriented steelhead. Whether you’re fishing classic West Coast steelhead rivers or Great Lakes tributaries, the Steelhead Yellow Humpy stands up to big water and big fish with ease.
Best for:
- Summer and early fall steelhead
- Riffles, tailouts, and surface-active conditions
- Skating, dead-drifting, or waking presentations
📌 Pro Tip: Use a floating line with a long leader and skate this fly across soft riffle tails or current seams—steelhead often key in on the surface wake as much as the fly itself.
