a salmon fly mentioned in trout and salmon magazine by ross macdonald and recommended as a fly for all waters. tied on partridge patriot double hook in size 8.
Wow thats amazing I seen the article in trout and salmon magazine after I first saw the pattern on Instagram tied by a friend of yours I believe? I really love the pattern and have just slightly tweeked it with holographic gold tinsel and hen hackles. I can't remember if I used squirrel or Arctic runner but I've tried to keep the basic pattern very similar. And added the jungle cock. Hope thats OK and hopefully done ya old man proud. Thank you for your input. Tight lines
Nice tying this is the fly I invented and named after my late father.
