he Copper Killer is a classic Atlantic salmon fly, especially popular in Eastern Canada. It’s considered a reliable pattern in both clear and slightly stained water due to its copper tones and subtle flash.
Notes
-
The copper body gives it weight and shine, making it deadly in lower light or tannic water.
-
Works well in rivers like the Margaree, Miramichi, and other Maritime salmon waters.
-
Some modern variations use copper wire underbody or UV copper tinsel for added durability and flash.
