8-inch tube flies in bright colors for salmon and steelhead; requires separate hooks and tying.
The Tigofly Skinny Sunray Shadow is an 8-inch tube fly sold as a set of nine colors, from hot pink and red to olive and blue. It has no hook included, so the angler chooses the hook and tippet that suit the water. Its slim, long-winged profile is built for a fast-swung presentation in moving water for salmon and trout.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
