Fly Question

Since salmon are in the rivers to spawn, and not to eat, we want to take advantage of their aggressiveness? I assume brown trout run the rivers with the salmon to eat the eggs. Maybe spawning as well, but I from what I can tell, they spawn from October to mid December. So, brown trout make salmon mad. So would rainbow trout.
I think large streamers tied in bright colours to represent either brown trout or rainbow trout would cause strikes at the fly based on the aggression towards the egg eaters.
Jason. Are flies that that hard to tie?
Do brook trout feed on salmon eggs? Do sea runs feed while spawning and do they eat salmon eggs?
