Flies for the Island

Flies for the Island

Below are some images of popular flies for PEI. The picture to the right is of a salmon box i carry to Morell and the flies within cover nearly all my needs.

A Prawn pattern you should not be without when fishing Island waterways!

My Morell Fly Box

my summer assortment for Morell Salmon and Trout

White winged Butterfly

I fish these mostly in size #6 and #8 and also use a yellow winged version. There is also a Black Ghost Butterfly that gets fished with success and "Spick" Eldershaw fishes an all brown version. You should never be without one.

Green Machine

Regardless of your preference on butt colours, tail or no tail, etc,, the GM is a fantastic fly here for both trout and Salmon.

Leetch

I tie and fish the leetch in a few differnet ways,, but all are equally successful. I prefer a light sink-tip, about a 1.5 ips and always give it action on the retrieve. I fish the black version mostly but also use an all purple and an all orange ver [more]

Wooly Worm

I like to fish these on a #6 salmon iron and fish a bunch of different versions. Black, Brown, Green and Yellow for example. Some old-time salmon guys here only fish the worm.
