Monkey fly

Monkey tubes are so deadly they have earned a category all on their own. They are fished differently from conventional flies in that we make them swing faster by not mending the line and even mending towards our own bank. When fresh salmon enter rivers they are totally power packed, full of energy and that is why the Monkey fly is so successful, salmon love to chase and hit a fly moving at pace, especially these long winged killers! If there is one fly you need in your flybox it is a Monkey fly so grab some and stand by for action....
