Some Flies And A Grilse

My mate Charlie was out at the Manar beat of the River Don on Tuesday and landed a nice salmon from the Horseshoe Haugh pool. The fish took a Sunray Shadow on the surface in the faster water. Charlie has had great success this season with the Sunray. He sent me pictures of some flies he's tied up for the back-end. I'm sure they will do the business. Here are some pictures of his fish and a few of his flies.

Another fine salmon from the Don. The condition of the Grilse this year has been really good.
Top to Bottom : Sunray Shadow, Ally's Shrimp, Crathie, Munro Killer, Park Shrimp and a Monkey.
