Baby Peacock Series

Baby Peacock Series; since the introduction of our Tapam Special and King's Candy baitfish flies there has been a steady increase in fly tiers that tie their bait fish flies in this fashion, utilizing Snowrunner (Nayat) brushes.

We are continuing to expand on these types of flies that have proven to be very effective, durable, easy casting flies. We believe these patterns are so good that they will be the new standard, replacing buck tail and synthetic patterns. Our new Baby Peacock Series consists of colour variations that are popular for Peacock Bass.

They are tied on size 3/0 and 4/0 high quality Partridge Predator hooks. All the patterns are slightly weighted to optimize weight to fly volume for casting, and help correct tracking in the water. This attention to small details may not be obvious at first glance but when you feel how well these big patterns cast and see how stable they track you will appreciate these details.

The Baby Peacock flies are big flies that target large Peacock Bass.

Available by pre-order only. All custom flies are tied by Jaap Kalkman, here in Smithers, BC. There may be some minor variation from the image because these flies are custom tied. All the flies will have tab eyes instead of CCG eyes. The tab eyes are more durable. Contact us at jaap@skeenariverflysupply.com to discuss your specifications.

Custom fly production takes time; we suggest to order your flies at least 2-3 months prior to your trip in order to make sure that your flies can be produced on time. When you place your order we will let you know when you can expect your flies to be ready. Waiting times most commonly vary between 2 weeks and 3 months. For big orders from Lodges and Guides and Outfitters we suggest to order your fly selections for the next season just after the current season.

In order to make custom fly production feasable and cost-effective there is a minimum order quantity of 6 per fly pattern.

The difference between a good angler and a great angler lies in the details. This goes also for fly designs. Attention to detail is what we do, from hook or tube selection to materials to the way the material are tied in to make them move the best. The end result is a fly that produces more strikes, the landing part is up to you!
