Ice Dub Sucker Spawn is a bright highly visible egg pattern for steelhead in high dirty water. I tie this fly with Glo Bug Bling yarn instead of the regular Glo Bug Yarn. The bling yarn has added flash which makes it more visible to fish. Tie this fly up in several sizes and color for when the water is slightly off-color.
Hook: MFC 7045 size 10-14
Thread: 6/0
Body: Glo Bug Bling Yarn
Flash: Ice Dub
Colors: pink, chartreuse, orange, blue, egg, peach
STEP 1: With your MFC no. 7045 in the vise. Attach your thread and wrap back to the tie-in-point. Take a 8in piece of Glo Bug Bling yarn, pull the yarn into 3 pieces for size 10 hook, 4 for size 12, and 5 for size 14. Tie the piece of yarn at the tie-in-point and secure with several wraps of thread.
STEP 2: Form a loop in the Glo Bug yarn as you did for the Blood Dot and Estaz Spawn.
STEP 3: Take a clump of Ice Dub (the same color as your Glo Bug yarn) and tie it in several more wraps.
STEP 4: Advance your thread forward and form a second loop in the Glo Bug yarn. Secure with another 3 wraps of thread.
STEP 5: Repeat 3 and 4 to form a third loop with another clump of Ice Dub between the two loops. Form a small head and whip finish.
