The Green Butt Skunk is a classic in itself but is actually a variation of well know Northwest Steelhead fly called the Skunk. Interesting how changing one aspect of a fly can make it even more effective. The Green Butt Skunk is a fly you should defiantly have in your fly box if you are chase Steelhead or Salmon. It is also very fun to tie! - Enjoy.
