PS Fly is fine by the way. Your tying some good stuff.

Thanks Alan, I'm going to need some salmon flies for this new fishing I have access to.  Any recommendations on patterns / sizes / tying tips etc?

[Allan Crawford]

That Cascade will do the job Fred with or without Jungle Cock, Salmon wont care ! I tend to tie my hackles in much longer to give the fly more pulse in the water, can't say I know it helps or not ? The Cascade is a great fly in streamy water.

[Wildfisher]

How about this then? A bit heavy on the hackle / thin on the black wing perhaps?

I need some better bucktail as I'm just using scraps right now. I have  some on order.

[Allan Crawford]

Thats exactly how I tie them, think the black wing is ok, I like it to add a different tone to the body in under all that yellow and orange rather than stand out ?

Black bucktail is good but for cascades i use polar bear. Its a refractive fibre so emits light. Get it is red as well. Perfect for tails on shrimps and cascade type flies. My fav north esk fly was a red shrimp.
