These boxed selections of
salmon flies, tied in the long
tailed shrimp style in sizes
6, 8, 10 and 12 are among the most popular and effective of
our modern salmon flies. They include the famous
patterns devised by Ally Gowans - Ally's Shrimp and the Cascade Shrimp in silver and
gold. Also included are the Magus and Black Boar, which have proven
their worth in recent seasons.

Each
fly selection offers practical variety for
use throughout the salmon fishing season, in a good range
of colours and sizes. The smaller, darker patterns will, in
general, be of most use in low, clear or warm water conditions while the
larger, brighter patterns will come into their own in high, cold or coloured
water.
All five patterns are dressed
on Fulling Mill black nickel double hooks or Partridge Salar doubles in four sizes -
6, 8, 10 and 12 - to create a salmon fly selection which will meet most conditions
of water and weather likely to be encountered on salmon rivers from
late Spring to Autumn.

Shrimp and Cascade Fly Selection
Ally's Shrimp
The original and now
renowned pattern devised by Ally Gowans. This is one of the most popular
and effective of all salmon flies in use today on Scottish rivers. Worth
a try in a wide range of river conditions and at any time of year.
Supplied in sizes
6, 8, 10 and 12. |

Cascade Shrimp
The Cascade Shrimp is
another of Ally Gowans's creations. It is a great allrounder and has
almost surpassed Ally's Shrimp in popularity. This version has a silver
rear body.
Supplied in sizes
6, 8, 10 and 12.

|
Cascade Shrimp - Gold
A very slight variation of
the Cascade, with a gold rear body instead of the silver. Just as
effective.
Supplied in sizes
6, 8, 10 and 12. |

Magus
I first used this fly in
1989 on the river Endrick, where it proved effective for both salmon and
sea trout. It has since taken salmon on several Scottish rivers
including the Teith, Dee, Alness, Allan, Borgie, Ruchill and Earn. A good
allrounder, showing up well in a variety of river conditions.
Supplied in sizes
6, 8, 10 and 12. |
|
|
Black Boar
This is a fairly recent
pattern, making good use of Chinese boar bristles to provide a bit of a
kick in the tail. Combine the colours of black, red and silver and you
have a reliable recipe for success, particularly in clear or cold water.
Supplied in sizes
6, 8, 10 and 12.
