About the Pot Belly Pig Ally Shrimp Salmon Atlantic Fly

PBP Ally Shrimp has proved, through success, to become a "must have" in your flybox; it works it magic throughout the season - spring, summer and autumn on all water where Salmon run. This vibrant complementarity alternative to Ally's Shrimp can be confused by the fish for a sea shrimp: a crustacean that salmon feed on during its marine life. With this in mind, Salmon can be induced to give free vent to its preying instinct if a bait is similar to its usual preys is presented. The shape, colour and suggestive commotion created by Pot Belly Pig’s stiff bristled tail does!

Expert Tip:

The secret is that the wild boar bristles being added into the tail to give a "kick” to the fly! So the real key when fishing the pattern is using the Boar bristle antenna and splay them out so they pulse in the water and don't matt down. This style of fly has, at times, been referred to as the boar bristle shrimp and the hog bristle shrimp.
