The Ghillie Salar & Partridge Patriot Double

Catalogue No: 4129
The Ghillie
The Ghillie Salmon fly is a popular and versatile pattern that has earned a reputation as a must-have in any salmon angler's fly box. Created by Tony Black, it is tied to a Gold Salar Double hook with a striking combination of yellow, black, and red materials, including a flowing red tail and gold body. One of the key features of The Ghillie is its versatility. It can be fished on a floating line, a sinking line, or even as part of a traditional Spey casting technique. This makes it an ideal pattern for use in a variety of fishing conditions, whether you're targeting salmon in a fast-flowing river or calmer waters. The Ghillie is particularly effective in Scotland, where it is a popular fly among anglers in rivers and streams throughout the country, including on the Isle of Skye. Its vibrant colours and lifelike movement in the water make it a highly effective pattern that is sure to catch the attention of any passing salmon.

Request a fly, size or option

We work closely with our fly tyers and can tie most patterns to order: a different hook size, barbless instead of barbed, a tungsten bead instead of a gold head; just ask.

Sending a request is free and you are not committing to buy. Depending on where we are in our tying cycle it can take a month or two for a pattern to arrive, and we may not be able to tie every request (fair usage applies); but if we can, we will.

Sign in first and we'll pre-fill your email and keep the request with your account.
