This is a salmon fisherman's delight. In the
center is a 7 ½" x 9 ½" original pen and ink drawing of a salmon by
Tom Hennessey. Orbiting the drawing are twelve hand-tied salmon flies by twelve famous
makers of fishing flies. The list of flies and their creators is as follows:

Each fly is framed in shadowbox fashion and
creates a very dramatic effect. Inserted in a pocket on the back of the
frame is a list of the flies with the signature of the craftsman who tied the
fly. Please click on the pictures below to see detailed images of this fascinating piece.
This is a very special piece. A number of
craftsmen who created these flies are no longer working. The flies alone
are collector's items. The outside dimensions of the frame are 22" x
26 ½" x 2".
