Shrimp

[Old Jock]

There is a chance that I might have my first ever chance of salmon fishing in two weeks time and was very kindly given some salmon doubles yesterday[bit on the large size but beggars can't be choosers.] so thought I would put them to good use. This is the first.

Nice OJ, I been doing some small size 14 doubles for my holiday to the river drowes in reland next week, might give this a shot, make sure you have lots of cascades, hairy mairies, blue charms etc.

Curry's Red Shrimp might be useful on the Drowes or even a Black Pennel!!

It certainly looks good to me Alan
I havent really tried much in the way of salmon flies and only for someone when they asked ,whether they ever fished them or caught anything on them would be debateable.

Cheers Folks! My first real attempt at a proper salmon pattern and actually find them relatively east to tie especially as the hook is large.
