Atlantic Flies Black Sheep Tungsten Micro Conehead

£4.25

Created by Icelandic fly-tier Haraldur Stefansson on the Grimsa River, the Black Sheep Tungsten Micro Conehead, tied exclusively by Atlantic Flies, is a proven performer in the low, clear-water conditions that define summer salmon fishing. Purpose-built to get a subtle fly down fast, this pattern has earned its place in fly boxes across Iceland and Europe.

The fly’s black-based colour scheme offers a confident silhouette without overpowering visibility—making it ideal when fish are lying deep and reluctant to chase. Paired with a micro tungsten conehead, the Black Sheep sinks quickly and fishes immediately, even in short drifts or tight glides.

Originally tied for Iceland’s Grimsa, this pattern has proven equally effective across other Icelandic rivers and low-water conditions throughout Northern Europe. It’s the kind of fly that produces takes when salmon are at their most cautious.

At Fin & Game, we stock patterns that combine true innovation with lasting effectiveness. The Black Sheep Tungsten Micro Conehead is one of those flies—simple, sharp, and highly dependable.
