Description

THE FLY A great pattern where the brown and gold actually inspired Mr. Norling to tie the original Tempeldog fly. Brown and gold, as seen in the fantastic Pahtakorva, is an excellent combination for slightly humus-coloured waters. This makes it a great standard fly for most rivers. With its double JC substitute feathers, it’s not only effective but also a beauty to tie on. We've kept the original colour concept, enhanced it with our SSS synthetics, and transformed it into a soft, modern, drop-formed classic that will swim and 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-style fly with a modern synthetic profile and a tungsten cone, so it is suited to swinging or swimming through rivers with moderate depth and flow. The brown and gold colorway is especially useful in slightly stained or humus-colored water where a bit of contrast helps the fly stand out.

Pros

  • Balanced modern swimmer profile
  • Tungsten cone helps it get down
  • Strong contrast for stained water

Cons

  • Not ideal for very shallow water
  • May be too flashy for ultra-clear conditions
