Choosing the right salmon fly is a problem that occurs for all
salmon fly fishers. There is no solid rule that works all the time everywhere.
Dark day, dark salmon fly; bright day, bright salmon fly can be a good guide along with high
water, big fly; low water, small salmon fly. But sometimes the reverse is true. Some
like to chose a fly of a color that matches the overall color of the riverbed.
Rivers that flow over bare rock or limestone are often crystal clear. They may
have a blue or green/yellow tinge so some choose flies with the same coloring
like Yellow Torrish or the Green Highlander. During early spring and late autumn
when the rivers are in full flow after a recent storm try some of the brighter
flies. Use garish yellow and orange flies for cold days like Ally's Shrimp,
General Practitioner, Dunkeld, Garry Dog, and Silver Doctor.
