Complex Twist Streamer - A Quick Fly Tying Tutorial - Duranglers

The Complex Twist Streamer is a play on the Complex Twist Bugger, invented and made famous by the creative mind of Cheech over at Fly Fish Food. With a few changes, shop employee Matt has been using this bug on our local waters as a go-to streamer when just hitting the water. The profile of this bug more mimics that of swimming and fleeing sculpin, which is a staple here on the Animas River.

Stripped, on the swing, or dead drifted, we have been filling our boxes with Complex Twist Streamers and Buggers. Give this technique a try, it makes fast work of fly tying night wnen filling your streamer boxes for trout, bass, and even steelhead!
