Description

THE FLY With this classic fly, Mikael caught his first ever salmon. Originally a feather wing tied on a small tube, we have imitated the golden pheasant tippet feather by striping a burnt orange wing with a marker. This odd but effective technique maintains the typical look of the original fly without losing its swimming capacity. The Durham Ranger, originating from the Scottish River Tay, is superb in coloured forest water or after a flood. We have preserved the original colour concept, enhanced it with our SSS synthetics, and transformed it into a soft, modern, drop-formed classic that will outfish the original feather wing. FEATURES – Medium broad profile – Tungsten 1/2 turbo cone – M FITS tubing for fixed hook – Balanced modern swimmer – Beautiful drop form – Synthetic jungle cock

Field Notes

A classic salmon fly designed for coloured water and post-flood conditions. The balanced modern swimmer profile suggests it is best swung or stripped through moving water where a lively, broad silhouette helps trigger strikes.

Pros

  • Strong profile for stained or high water
  • Modern synthetic materials preserve swimming action
  • Classic salmon pattern with proven appeal

Cons

  • Not ideal for very clear water
  • Specialized salmon fly, so less versatile than general-purpose patterns
