Having just finished a load of Golden Guns I thought I'd have a play with the Willie Gunn colour scheme. This is the colours of a Willie Gunn tied in the style of an Irish shrimp fly.
Willie Gunn_0002.jpgWillie Gunn_0004.jpg
Hook: Salmon, whatever you like.
Thread: Black UTC 140.
Tail: Mixed Buck tail in orange, yellow, and black. Pearl crystal flash over.
Rear Hackle: Yellow Cock.
Body: In two halves, Black floss ribbed gold oval
Centre Hackle: Orange cock.
Wings: Jungle cock.
Front Hackle: Black cock.

The hackles are kept quite short using stiff cock to give the fly more buzz in the water.

Cheers,
A.
