This version of
Randall Kaufmann's Coal Car was tied by Salmonfly.Net Contributing Fly Tyer Eric
Martin. In
Flies for Steelhead, Dick Stewart and Farrow Allen write that the
Coal Car is a darker variation of Kaufmann's popular Freight Train and is most effective on dark, overcast days or at dusk. Read more about
Eric Martin and see more of his flies at The Flies of
Eric Martin.
