Metallica

Metallica designed by Petur Steingrimsson is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful salmon flies in Iceland and should not be missing in any fly box.

Since this fly was first introduced it has gained extreme popularity, and with a reason, because it is as effective as it is an eye candy!
