Purple cape

[dwillis]

I bought a lucky dip selection of cheap capes from an online retailer. I'm pleased with what I got but am not sure what to do with this one (possibly taken from a muppet?). Any recommendations?

Purple is a popular colour in salmon flies

Could you wear it as a wig?

Move to British Columbia and fish for Steelhead?

It certainly screams.

So I can either tie up some flies for holidays by the seaside / in Canada / salmon fishing or wear it as a trademark wig?

Thanks guys

Dye it black ?

spiders, nymphs, bumbles, dabblers, salmon flies, , actually a nice colour, that particular colour could lift or set another colour off, , making a big contrast could make it worthwhile,


very shrimpy colour for salmon flies

You can send it to me and I will tie up some lovely shrips.
Try a turn behind the black hackle on a blae and black or a black pennell.
