Check out the latest video in our Fly Tying Fridays series on YouTube. This time, Ben Baxter is tying one of our favorite streamer patterns: Galloup's Peanut Envy.
This pattern began as a tribute to Russ Maddin’s popular streamer, the Circus Peanut. Kelly Galloup’s Peanut Envy is a bit lighter, more understated, and features a slim profile. We’ve enjoyed fishing this streamer on a variety of waters here in Colorado, from big rivers to smaller streams. The lightweight and sleek nature of this fly makes it versatile and easy to cast compared to many other articulated streamers.
Take a look, as Ben takes us step-by-step through Galloup’s Peanut Envy:
