The leaper - salmo salar

The Allys Shrimp
A local Scottish Salmon pattern

Take a 1.5 inch aluminum tube wind half with red then black floss. Counterwind a ribbed section with fine gold wire. Add some dyed orange bucktail hairs to the tube and also form a 'fly' tail. Tie on feathers from a section of Golden Pheasant tippet to make a 'fly' wing. Finish the fly with a red floss head. At the waterside add a hook, for example a size 12 Salmon-double.
