The Eany Tailfire Shrimp salmon fly is one of a new generation of Irish Salmon flies, which is a mixture of shrimp and cascade (long tail) patterns. This one was created by John Mc Laughlin from Donegal. There is also a light version of the Eany Tailfire Shrimp, where the front Badger hackle in front is dyed Yellow.
