Salmon Fishing Flies to Land a Trophy Catch

Here at Fin & Game we offer a wide selection of the highest quality salmon flies, designed to bring you success on the mighty Tweed and wherever else you chase the King of Fish. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just starting out, we have the perfect fly to help you land your next trophy catch.

Here are some of the different types of salmon flies available at Fin & Game:

• Classic Dressed Flies: Fin & Game offers a vast selection of classic salmon fly patterns, dressed on Singles, Doubles and Trebles. Time tested flies like the Silver Doctor, Ally’s Shrimp, Cascade or Willie Gunn for example should always command a space in your fly box. Or you can choose more local, proven killers such as the Black and Yellow Gledswood or Posh Tosh.
• Tubes: Another must have option for any serious salmon angler, we similarly have a huge selection of Tube patterns for fishing deeper down when required.
• Micro Tube Flies: These small, exquisitely put together flies are a great choice for low and/or clear water conditions or when fish are being pressured.

Tips for choosing salmon flies:

• Fly Size: The size and weight of the fly should be chosen according to the conditions, ie water height/flow, clarity and temperature.
• Fly Colour: The fly’s colour or colours should match the conditions and be a proven fish taker on the particular river you are fishing.
• Fly Action: The action of the fly and how it is fished in terms of depth and speed is also key to success.

Condition, conditions, conditions! If you are not sure which salmon fly to choose, the friendly and knowledgeable staff at Fin & Game can help you select the right fly for your needs.

In addition to the flies mentioned above, Fin & Game also sells a variety of other salmon fishing gear, including fly rods, fly reels, fly lines, leaders and tippets.  We also offer a selection of fishing clothing, waders, coolers and luggage to further enhance your salmon fishing trips.
