In Iceland, they call me ‘Haugur’ — actually named after this fly. Just finished a fresh batch for the upcoming salmon season.

The ‘Haugur’ has been a staple in my box for decades. It’s a simple but deadly Icelandic pattern: black wing, electric blue highlights, and a Fire Orange head on a doubled hook. It’s been so good to me over 30 years of guiding that the fly’s name eventually became my own. There’s nothing like the confidence of swinging a fly that defines your entire reputation.
