King Fry

As the salmon eggs mature and turn into Alevin, the next phase in the salmon life cycle is the "Fry" stage. It starts to look a bit more like a minnow as the yolk sac is absorbed. The head is more defined, the parr marks start to appear, and they become a little stronger. They are better at swimming in this stage, so a swung presentation is a good way to fish this pattern. 

This is a very easy fly to tie, with just a handful of materials needed. You will burn through a pack of hooks in no time. This is a 2 minute fly tops, which we like. Here's what you'll need:
