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

This is a classic salmon fly designed for colored water or post-flood conditions. Fish it on a swing or steady retrieve where the fly can show its broad profile and balanced swimming action. The tungsten cone and tube-style construction help it track and sink effectively in moving water.

Pros

  • Classic salmon pattern with proven profile
  • Good choice for stained or flooded water
  • Balanced swimmer with modern synthetic materials

Cons

  • Not ideal for very clear water
  • Specialized salmon fly, so use is narrow
