Z's Top 5 for Spring Steelhead #5

The final fly in my top 5 for spring steelhead patterns is Zuddy's Copper Stone. This attractor pattern works especially well when the tiny black stoneflies start making their way to shore. I typically fish this fly below an indicator as my bottom fly (egg fly on top). Although you can fish it on a C&D rig as well, I've found it fishes better under the indy.
