APES Salmon Fly

salmon fly designed to represent the Association for the Preservation of the Eastern Shore


A salmon fly designated “THE APES FLY” and designed by fly tier Chris Williams, which symbolizes the value of the resources of the Eastern Shore Nova Scotia and its surrounding communities.

The ‘Apes Fly’ consists of the following:
* a tag of flat holographic tinsel which symbolizes the value of “Wild Atlantic Salmon;”
* a butt of hot red which symbolizes the value of lobster and crab to the fisherman of Nova Scotia and its surroundings;
* a tail of Grey Heron substitute honoring the protected wildlife habitat;
* a body of white and blue resembling two of Nova Scotia’s colors, and a rib of oval silver tinsel;
* a wing of black bear, topped with red squirrel tail, followed by black bear, honouring the strength and fight of all the people involved with the group “APES;”
* a cheek of an eye of jungle cock, which symbolizes the many people watching the NDP government as well as Snow Island Salmon and their partner Loch Duart’s every move.
* A throat of orange says, “KEEP THE HEAT ON,” and last, a head of black.
