A strange fly

The Frances fly is a famous shrimp – prawn pattern that fishes well all through the season

A compact and rather peculiar looking fly that has a very hypnotic grip on Atlantic salmon. This a classic size for the whole season.

The Frances fly was originally devised by the late UK fly tier Mr. Peter Dean This was in 1968 The fly was a special commission job for his client Mr. David Blythe who were about to embark on a journey to fish various salmon rivers on Iceland – The fly was a great success and this odd shrimp pattern has ever sins been a favoured fly on Iceland and at many other rivers in Europa.

We envision that this pattern with time will become a favoured pattern for steelhead anglers on the West Coast of North America…

Success has many fathers

Right; An original Frances fly by the fly tiers that worked with Peter Dean – Or actually it is the next generation of the Frances fly called The Black Eyed Prawn – or The BEP The BEP is almost identical to the Frances Fly – except for the two black beads attached to the top of the fly.
