Rubber Legs Variegated Black/Coffee Size 4-6
The Rubber Leg Stone is a staple on the Lower Sacramento River. I always have a Rubber Legs tied on. The Lower Sacramento has a good population of Salmon, Golden and Skwala stoneflies. The Rubber Legs is a “Guide Fly”, that plain works. I carry three different colors in my fly box. I carry brown, brown/black variegated and olive/orange/brown variegated rubber legs in two different sizes. These flies are tied to my specifications. I use a TMC 5262 rather than a TMC 5263 hook. The TMC 5262 is a shorter shank hook. The larger Rubber Legs are tied on a size 4 and the smaller are tied on a size 6. The bigger hook sizes have the same shank length as the TMC 5263 but give you a larger hook gap. These Rubber Legs are weighted heavily, the complete shank is .025 non-toxic lead wire. When you stick a big river rainbow with a size 4 Rubber Legs fly – he or she isn’t coming off!!
The Black/Coffee Rubber Legs is tied to represent the Pteronarcys Californica. These variegated Rubber Legs are to represent stoneflies that are molted and are getting ready or are traveling to the shore to hatch. I fish this color in March and April during the biggest migration.
