A productive Intruder Fly for fly fishing for steelhead. Follow along with this fly tying tutorial that shows how intruder flies are tied and the special techniques for better fishing flies.

This style is what I referee to as an "Over the Top" intruder - an intruder with a defined top and bottom (rather than tied in the round) and a heavy line of flash on the top. They color combination has worked well for Great Lakes Steelhead as a swung fly on switch and spey rods as a baitfish imitation.
