hi all have spent the last couple of weeks in the saltwater however unusal heavy rain has left good water in the rivers which should have a few salmon and white trout running this fly should do both i have never seen this pattern lised in books before but i first seen it in a shop many years ago it has worked particulary well for white trout the red head and silver hook were my own thoughts i dont know the name for this shrimp im sure it has one but ill stick with silver for the minute anyway hope you all like it all the best john
