Orange is a fantastic color to use in the fall because it mimics the eye-catching hues of brook trout. Joe Sterling, a fly tier from Maine, created the Wood Special in the late 1960s, and it has been a well-liked brook trout and landlocked salmon pattern ever since. Many fishermen think that the profile created by the curved wing resting against the body is irresistible to fish. This is often favored as a fly for fishing remote brook trout ponds. Tied on a size 8 limerick hook.
