I could see why it would be effective on both smallies and trout - good color, right amount of flash. The chili pepper matuka would have been a good pattern for the Chili Pepper Swap - copper chennille body and orange hackle wing and collar - with or without the copper cone head. I'll call first right of refusal to tie that in the next pepper swap!

We got to talking flies and I asked him about the Chili-pepper. He hadn't heard of it, but his special go-to fly is similar, and it's called the Orange-blossom Special. Tough I'd tie up some to compliment my peppers and give it a go, too. http://www.riverbum.com/Salmon-&-Steelhead/Orange-Blossom-Special/ I'd be interested to hear how it works from others. He got it from a friend from W. Virginia who does a lot of smallmouth fishing. Said it was his killer pattern, and it worked on Wyoming trout, too.
