RoyalWulff 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2008 a cosseboom! Very nice fly and effective for the atlantics! That fly is tied in a rainbow of colours, you could have a fly box filled with just that pattern in different colour variations. Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The hook looks like a low water hook but I am not sure. I agree with Phil. You can convert most salmon flies into the Cosseboom style. A minor detail to the tie. Be careful where you tie in the oval silver for the rib (your close up picture gave you away) Regards Jens Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
