Name Chartreuse Carron Category Salmon / Pacific Salmon/ Steelhead Hook Salmon Wet Fly, Sizes 1/0-4 Thread Red Tail Ringneck Pheasant Rump, Dyed Claret, Wound On Rear Body Chartreuse Floss Ribbed with Oval Gold Tinsel Middle Hackle Black Saddle Hackle Front Body Chartreuse Floss Ribbed with Oval Gold Tinsel Wing Lemon Yellow Mallard Flank Collar Chartreuse Saddle Hackle

The Chartreuse Carron is roughly based on the Fluorescent Green Shrimp from Peter O'Reilly's fine book, Trout & Salmon Flies of Ireland. I've used colors that are well know attractors for Salmon and Steelhead. Shrimp flies are hugely popular in Ireland which can be attributed for their success in catching fish. The Pattern for the Fluorescent Green Shrimp calls for a Fluorescent Green Floss body; Creamy Badger middle and front hackle; and a roofed Jungle Cock Wing.

Do you have any questions about this fly?
