Atlantic Flies Dee Sunray Skull Head

The Dee Sunray Skull Head Tube, tied exclusively by Atlantic Flies, is a high-contrast, spring-focused variant of the classic Sunray pattern—enhanced with a weighted Fish Skull head for added control, sink rate, and lifelike swimming motion. Built to perform when water is cold, peaty, or running high, this fly combines the visibility and movement needed to connect with early-season salmon.

The black and yellow combination is one of the most trusted in salmon fishing. The bold black wing provides a strong, sweeping silhouette that holds shape and motion even in deep or coloured water, while the vivid yellow underwing and hackle create eye-catching contrast that stands out in cold, clear, or peat-stained flows. This pairing is especially effective in the early spring, when salmon lie deep and are more reactive to strong visual triggers.

The addition of the Fish Skull head gives the fly a baitfish-like dive and natural tracking motion—ideal when fishing square or slightly upstream with a controlled retrieve. This allows the fly to maintain tension and visual presence throughout the swing.

At Fin & Game, we believe in patterns that earn their reputation across seasons. The Yellow Sunray Skull Head Tube is a spring salmon essential—crafted for clarity, action, and serious results.
