The UV Orange Reeper performs well in clear water streams. It has a natural movement that attracts coho salmon. The UV beads stand out in the current, making it easy to see in the water. I’ve used it with the Coho Crusher flasher and it’s been a solid combination.

Felt like a good match for steelhead in late spring. The fly holds up well in the water and doesn’t break easily. The tail design helps it move naturally. A bit heavy for small streams, but works well in larger rivers.

Great for targeting Kokanee in cold water. The UV beads add visibility without being flashy. Tied with the recommended flasher, it gives a strong action that keeps fish interested.
