Frances Micro conehead Tube Fly – Olive and Orange 1/2″

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 predict that this fantastic pattern with time also will become a favoured pattern with steelhead anglers on the West Coast of North America…

Right; An original Frances fly by the frances-fly-peter-dean 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.
