This version of Orange Admiral was tied by Oregon fly tyer, David Swart. See his comments below.
David's Comments: ...an old school Salmon pattern I found in a magazine article some time back. Simple but effective. I don't weight the body, instead I use a fast sink-tip, with a short leader and loop knot to get it down. I get better action from the fly that way.
