One on the left is called Potemkin and the other one is Bomber. Both flies are tied on #6 hooks and are intended for the Atlantic-salmon. As I mentioned earlier I have never fished salmon and these are first flies in my soon-to-be-purchased salmon fly box.

Wait a minute - you're sending flies to that no-account slacker Ian Rutter? While your bestest friend in the blogging world goes without?
Ohh, treachery! (Was that appropriately Shakespearian or what?)
Beautiful Atlantic Salmon dries. Now I can't wait to see how they work for you. Do you have a trip planned?
Tom,
That flattery gets you no-where! Don't tell me that you didn't notice that the Bomber is missing it's tail because I clipped it off with the deer hair?
Oh, well. I can send you some flies... What do you have in mind? Is there any stoneflies in Upper Sac? That Potemkin pattern is actually a stonefly pattern and it is of Finnish origin.
I haven't actually planned a salmon fishing trip yet.
Don't worry about the flies. It's more fun simply giving you grief.
Actually, just wondered if that wasn't some kind of personal modification.
It's fly tieing - you never know.
