Ally's Shrimp
This Ally's Shrimp is is the original Ally's Shrimp invented in
1981 and was first publicised in 1988. This is probably the most
used Atlantic salmon fly in the World. Does well at any time of
year. |
Silver Ally's Shrimp
Silver Ally's Some anglers swear by this pattern and who could blame
them? It is very good all year round in any conditions. |
Red Lurex Ally's
Red Lurex Ally's was an attempt to better the effectiveness of the
original pattern and sometimes it does that, especially in the autumn
and in small sizes for grilse. |
Ally's Special Shrimp
Ally's Special Shrimp has an orange and red double collar hackle.
If I had only one fly from August onwards, this would be my choice. |

Cascade
Cascade is another great success story. Originally tied as a joke
it has turned out to be the top fly on several rivers over the past
few years. Two versions are available, gold or silver bodies. (Specify
with order.) |
Yellow
Ally's Shrimp
Yellow Ally's Shrimp Originally tied with a yellow floss rear body,
Robin McLeod ex Head Fisherman at Dochfour on the R. Ness improved
it by adding silver. A great fly in peaty water or very clear water
combined with bright light.

Tummel
Shrimp
Tummel Shrimp arose from the need to have a reliable dark coloured
fly. It combines the proven colour combinations of the Willie Gunn
and the Thunder and Lightning to produce a grand fly. |
Ally's Yellow Shrimp
Ally's Yellow Shrimp was an experiment to try to catch some evasive
Tummel salmon a few years ago, and I'm glad to say that it was very
successful. Does well too in very small sizes for grilse in low
water. |

of the original version. It is especially good at tempting stale
fish and is effective through autumn when red colours are favored

Any black and silver salmon fly is deadly in clear or icy water
and the Black Ally's Shrimp is one of the very best in such conditions.

shows up well in coloured water and is always a favourite in the
spring. |
