The HOLY GRAIL of Salmon Flies! Do YOU agree?

- It could be argued, the gold bodied Willie Gunn has landed more Atlantic salmon than any other salmon fly in history! Flies that may compete for this stature, such as the gold cascade, are essentially based on this deadly colour scheme. It really is a universal fly that can be fished in any water in any condition.
Here I tie a small size 12 version, that I will most likely tie on as a dropper. The fly can be tied on large or small hooks, as well as on a range of tube tubes types and Waddington shanks.

Thanks for the video. Really nice looking fly 👌
@@spiderman3044 thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video 👌🎣
salmon will take any fly when they want to if they dont want to no flies will work
Personally I think size and depth is more important but I have covered non takers and induced a take with a change of pattern but this wouldn't be in perfect conditions
The Alistair is in close contention here, eh Donald? (you know who you are!)
And so similar to the gold Willie Gunn too 👌 great shout
Fantastic job thanks going to tie some up over the winter
A nice fly to tie up Stephen, enjoy 👍
Lovely tying as usual Sean. Totally agree the WG is the number 1 fly closely followed by the black and yellow, and one of my personal favourites the Comet.
A fan of the traditional flies I see Billy 👍 never tried the comet before though...or even tied it for that matter 🤔
Go on tie one, and fish it, you will love it 👌@@SeánWoodsFishing
@@billytheghillie I'll add it to the list 👌
Unreal completely agree! Going to tie a few in softer material for low water ridge pool. Love gold hooks for fresh fish.
I'd say you would have to tie up a few on 1/4 inch plastic tubes after last year's action Adam 👍
Thanks Seán will do!!
Another great pattern, thanks Seán 👍
Thanks very much Ryan 👍
