Tying a Fly Called Munro Killer
Fly Tying Tutorial From Ívar’s Fly Workshop
It’s just about Salmon Saturday and today we’ll be tying the famous salmon fly Munro Killer. Great mid and late summer salmon pattern that works great for the Atlantic wild salmon here in Iceland. The Munro Killer is a fly that’s famous as well for bluffing the big ones to take it.
Up here we have many 100cm fishes that took the fly and it’s gonna remain like that. Hope you guys enjoy the YouTube channel and if you have any suggestions just drop me an email to flugusmidjan@gmail.com
We’ll be uploading at least 2 new videos every week until the season starts here in Iceland. Tight lines and be vice by the vise. All footage in 4K and we have a LOT of stuff coming in soon. Stay tuned.
Here we will be tying the Munro Killer. The fly is a great option for mid and late summer fishing for Salmon. The fly seems to work everywhere you can find the north Atlantic Salmon and has caught many large salmons here in Iceland. Some people say that the Munro Killer is a variation of the Thunder and Lightning fly.

Hello there, My name is Ívar Örn Hauksson and I’m an Icelandic enthusiast about fly fishing and fly tying. I lived almost my whole life in Iceland and have been doing flyfishing and fly tying since I was about 10 years old. I learned and was narrated by two of the most talented fly tiers in the country, Jón Sigurðsson and Jón Pedersen. I am a lawyer by education and an Ahrex Pro Team member. The goal with my new channel is to preserve Icelandic flies and related knowledge as well as guidance. The channel also opens up the world of Icelandic fly tying for beginners in Iceland and abroad. The Ívar’s Fly Workshop channel will post new material every Tuesday and Saturday until the spring of 2021. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to comment on the videos. You can also send us an email to: flugusmidjan@gmail.com
