With its black and orange colouration, the Black Ally's Shrimp is a standout option at the start of the summer runs and will continue to produce results until the end of the season. This pattern is a must-have for any angler's fly box.

Expert Tip:

The use of a salar double silver hook in the Black Ally's Shrimp provides a larger profile and increased movement, mimicking the action of a fleeing shrimp and triggering an aggressive response from salmon. The silver colouration of the hook also provides a subtle flash that adds an extra level of attraction for fish. The Black Ally's Shrimp is a reliable and productive pattern that is sure to bring success to anglers targeting salmon in clear or icy water conditions.
