Hey, Well done! Now you finally join the 'dark side'... hahaha Another young jedi with fly rod in the making. Keep it up! ;D Now I believe you could understand why we take out our fly rods most of the time.  |

Well done fishin_guy.  Congratulations on your catch. You can try the hopper fly or black adams for the kalui. |

Hi fishing_guy,
Sometime back, Highlander wrote a very informative article on catching kalui. Unforunately the FK forum crashed and that article was lost. We hope that Highlander is able to write it again for us to share.
I managed to pick up some tips from Highlander and Shadowcaster on chasing kalui; PATIENCE and ACCURANCY. or is it the other way around. Like Billy said, hoppers and dry flies are essential "diet" for the kalui.
Keep on trying, I got mine after a long spell. ;D
Cheers
Qwek

Hi fishing-guy,
I have a couple of foam hoppers for you, please pm me your contact and I will arrange to pass them at Coho.
You can also try tying a hopper pattern using the Al Shwapf pattern, use deer hair for the wing and tie the body loosely for the fly to float. Check out the fly tying section for detail.
Cheers
Qwek
