Chartreuse Special Salmon Fly

Another great spring salmon fly available from the salmon fly blog.
My chartreuse special is a great fly for spring fishing or for fishing a clearing river after a spate.
This fly encorporates Pearly flash in the lower wing, and magenta peacock herl over the top wing to really make the fly glow in the water.

Posh Tosh Salmon fly


The posh tosh salmon fly is a firm favourite in the spring, but catches fish all through the season.
The UV properties in the body of this fly make it really shine and stand out in the water.

Editor salmon fly Tube



This is my tying of the Editor fly tube style. This fly uses a pearl body with a glow in the dark thread layed underneath. It then has a Fluo yellow/green rib and fluo yellow jungle cock cheeks.
It glows under UV light and is a favourite amongst night time sea trout anglers as well as salmon anglers. To order this or any of my flies please e-mail me at ballingall512@sky.com

Long Green Highlander Salmon Fly
