UV Mercies Mirage
Salmon Elixir’s coho slider flies are tied using a 2.5″ fly body, #1 VMC treble hook with 30 inches of 50# fluorocarbon. Two 8mm UV beads are added along with the Hyper Vis lure tape collar on a tapered tail fly head with eyes. Our slider flies work great for coho salmon, Kokanee, and steelhead.
Pair our coho salmon flies with our line up of 5″ Coho Crusher Flashers. The Coho Crusher flasher provides the right action to lure those fish in.

The UV Mercies Mirage flies perform well in cold water streams. The UV beads make them stand out in low light, and the tapered tail gives a natural movement. I’ve caught several coho with this setup paired with a Coho Crusher flasher.

Good quality construction. The fly holds up well in windy conditions. The action is smooth and attracts fish during early morning and late afternoon.

I’ve used this fly in multiple rivers and it consistently draws in coho and steelhead. The visibility from the UV beads helps when fishing in murky water.
