Another classic salmon for my fishing box: the Durham Ranger. I have a JC that really isn’t that good for display flies, but\u00a0for these fishing flies they are great! The durham ranger is one that I haven’t tied before but is in almost every book about the classics, and it shows up on many sites describing this pattern that was made by\u00a0William Henderson in the 1840’s. I didn’t have all the material to be true to the original pattern, but I made due with what I had.<\/p>\n

I always tie up a couple of each when I start a pattern to get a feel on how the pattern is, this time the second time around did come out better:<\/p>\n
