High-quality flies from Guideline (Norway), tied with the finest materials and designed by well-known Scandinavian fly tyers.
The Red Frances is one of the most effective flies for Atlantic salmon fishing. Originally from Iceland, it is now used with great success throughout Europe all year round. Fresh salmon, in particular, respond very well to this pattern, originally designed to imitate a shrimp. This classic variant is tied with red wool and pig bristles on an aluminum tube, causing it to sink somewhat slower than tungsten or copper variants.
