"One of the latest ideas for imparting movement to the fly is the 'magic head', a funnel-shaped piece of plastic that is tied in to the fly behind the eye of the hook. It can be pushed forward to make the fly vacillate or it can be peeled back to create a streamlined profile." Richard Donkin talks up plastic funnels, wobbler blades and Ally McGowan salmon flies on London's Financial Times.
