Bunyan Bug ?

Fly Patterns
1

Was wondering if anyone knew where I might find a picture of the underside of a Bunyan Bug (Salmonfly) ? Have seen a few pictures of the Bunyan Bug but they only show the top side.

Thanks, Jim

J. Castwell, That is about the only picture I have seen of the underside of the Bunyan Bug. I am just wondering if Norman Means used the same design pattern for the top and bottom.

Thanks, Jim

Jim,

I doubt it.

Most Salmon Flies have a segmented look to the bottom of them. I’d bet that the ‘original’ just had the body segments on the bottom.
