Zak Tackle Salmon Fly
Why you need this
The Zak Tackle Salmon Fly is a proven fish-getter, designed for trolling Alaska’s favorite salmon waters. Previously known as the Whaly Whale Salmon Fly, this 3-inch unweighted fly is tied on an approximately 2/0 hook and made to run short behind a flasher. It’s a go-to setup for trolling silvers, kings, and pinks, especially when they’re looking for a compact profile with tons of action. Add a little weight up the line and you can flip it in rivers, too—ideal for hitting tidewater coho or slow pools during staging.
- Classic salmon trolling fly—updated name, same action
- Unweighted body gives great tail movement behind a flasher
- Runs clean and true on short rigs or dropper setups
- Can be flipped in rivers with added lead
- Great choice for DIY leaders or pre-tied setups
What’s this good for?
Trolling for silvers, pinks, and feeder kings
Short-flasher setups for coho staging in bays or estuaries
River flipping with added split shot or inline weights
Backtrolling setups in slower water
Use off a downrigger, diver, or behind a planer board
How to use?
Run 20–30" behind your favorite flasher or dodger
Tie direct to leader or use quick-change swivels
For river use, add split shot or a drop sinker above a swivel
Tip with a small herring strip or scent for added effect
Ideal leader length: 25–36 lb mono
