The source of this pattern is P.D.Malloch from Perth. Kelson was (as usual) changing it a little. Kelson also hold this fly to be one of the best flies for River Earn, and lightly dressed a very god summer fly for River Dee. The main different between Kelson's and Malloch's fly are that Kelson used Seal instead of silk for the yellow part of the body. |
