About the Red Bearded Templedog Salmon Atlantic Fly

The Red Bearded Templedog is one of a series of tube flies originally developed by the Swedish fly tier Hakan Norling. They all are tied in the same style and with the use of "Templedog" hair for the wing - this is substituted with good quality arctic fox which gives the same tantilising flowing movement.
