From The Hermes Fall-Winter 1988-1989 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: These flies are not the kind you swat. They live not in the air, but in the water. The fruit of the fisherman's most vivid imagination, "'flies" are the most elegant - and the most deceptive - way of catching salmon. Accomplished anglers say the hook in the feathers just nips the corner of the fish's mouth. The beast is then thrown back into the water, having simply provided the fisherman with a happy occasion to prove his prowess.
