Nice flies macd. I fear that a lot of salmon anglers would steer clear because of the bright green and blue - died in the wool yellow, orange and black fisherman especially. While there is no argument against the more traditional colours, I feel that it pays to experiment, especially so on heavily fished waters. A friend of mine has been doing well over the last couple of seasons with bright pink creations. Heaven forbid, I even incorporated some pink into Willie Gunns last night  I witnessed a fisherman doing well on association water last spring with a very large, very bright, green fly. I know that the Thurso Dog also does well from the article by your father. Might even tie some tonight. Is that GP topping in the tail? |

Have to thank macd for the pattern in flyfishing and flytying.
Tied one before i went to Galway Weir last week.size 11 salar double. Result: 5 on the Thurso Dog on the dropper and 2 on my old faithful gold stoat on the point.
Cracking fly for galway and there will be more than one travelling next time i go.
Thanks again Ross
