Some flies don’t need reinvention—they’ve already earned their place in history. The Silver Rat Atlantic Salmon Fly is one of those rare patterns: understated, elegant, and devastatingly effective when Atlantic salmon are on the move.

Born from the belief that contrast, movement, and confidence matter more than flash, the Silver Rat excels in a wide range of water conditions—from clear autumn runs to darker, tannin-stained rivers. Its slim profile and dark silhouette trigger instinctive strikes, especially when salmon are selective or pressured.

Each fly is hand-tied with care and consistency, built to withstand aggressive takes, long drifts, and the kind of moments you plan entire seasons around.
