Pink Bead Rainbow Warrior
Joe will be tying a variation of the Rainbow Warrior
The original rainbow warrior is one of Joe's go-to flies in Iowa and Wisconsin, where he typically finds success in the slower pools. The rainbow warrior is a quick tie and he'll typically have a dozen in his fly box. Joe has had a lot of success with the original pattern and is looking forward to trying this pink beaded alternate.
