Martin Tolley came to Vancouver in the late 1950’s after a brief stint back east when he immigrated to Canada from England. He is considered to be one of the original Steelhead bum’s in the Pacific Northwest. He loved fishing the Squamish river when the steelhead runs used to be numerous. Tolley was a founding member and the first president of the Totem Fly Fishing club which was the first fly fishing club in BC. He developed this pattern in the 1960’s and was one of the few that promoted the use of fly’s for winter run steelhead in the early days of steelheading in BC. This is a killer pattern and has been proven to fool winter and summer run steelhead across the Pacific Northwest.
