The blue charm with squirrel tail is one that shows up a lot of places when you start looking at salmon patterns, I have done some of them earlier, but then with a rather stiff cock hackle. This week I got some hen saddle and two different colors of squirrel tail, so I tied up these to go in my salmon box.<\/p>\n

The blue charm is a great pattern that can work\u00a0for both salmon and seatrout,\u00a0\u00a0it is not a very hard pattern to tackle, but make sure that the squirrel is tied in well: it has quite the slick surface on the hairs – use a waxed thread or ensure that it is well locked in before tying off!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
