New Metallic Streamers

Hello all tyer's..... we've been working for 5 yrs. and field testing these Metallic streamers,they do catch large Trout! I'm with GeorgiaFlyGuide and was tired of the same old stuff so we set down for hours tying differn't streamers with difffern't types of materials. After days of messing with all types of flashy materials we come up with some metallics that would be colorful, flexable, durable and none shrinking. Seven flies have come from this material plus a metallic nymph which catches Trout! The streamers that GeorgiaFlyGuide has designed works very well on Trout and other warm water species, Mr.Copper was our first streamer on the market in 05 but couldn't put it on the market untill a producer was found. This was a great task but thank God we found a producer ........ we have been field testing these streamers for about six years. As a guide I can appriciate those who do designs on flies, this gives us all a great choise to choose from. Mr.Copper has 80% Copper materials except the tail which has a mixture of Copper and Gold. This streamer has great tail movement and Hackle movement in which is a Tri-lobal is used, which has great movement underwater plus can be seen in low light and over cast skys. I've posted this streamer........
