Tied by: Don Soar
Originated by: Don Soar
Hook: Gaelic Supreme Mike Martinek Rangeley Streamer hook 8xl #2
Thread: Black
Tail: Wood duck flank fibers
Body: Gold flat tinsel
Rib: Gold oval tinsel
Throat: Dark blue hackle fivers
Wing: 2 Coq de Leon hackles flanked by slightly shorter dark blue hackle
Shoulder: Wood duck flank feather
Eye: Jungle cock nail
Head: Black
Notes: The color of the lemon wood duck feathers compliment the gold body and Coq de Leon wing perfectly while the dark blue hackle provides an interesting contrast. The Rams franchise began in 1936, but didn't settle in St. Louis until 1995, capturing a Superbowl title just a few years later in 1999. The teams official colors are Millenium Blue and New Century Gold. When the streamer hits the water, it is a flawless mimic for a shiner.
