The Junction Shrimp was named after the Junction Pool on the River Tweed. The River Tweed is one of the few Scottish salmon rivers where a degree of white has proved to be very successful.

The white in the wing of the Junction Shrimp and other white wing patterns make it a very good fly for making the best of the available light at dusk.

The design of this salmon fly was based around two concepts. The first was to tie a fly that resembled a returning eel parr from the Sargasso Sea. The second was to produce a fly for some conservative American friends who declined to use tube flies so he wanted to design a fly pattern that resembled a tube fly without actually being one. His friend Joseph Hubert on seeing the fly (back in 1977) declared that it was like a ‘black sheep’ in the company of all other classic salmon flies and the name stuck! Black Sheep has become a international fly, used widely from shores of Canada to the Russian Tundra. Tied in multitude of variations and sizes, from 2” copper tubes, down to #18 trebles. A very good all round fly, that catches fish from early spring to late autumn. The Dee Sheep is a variation, and has become a hugely popular in UK in recent years.
