Atlantic Salmon Trust reels in She Ties Flies for charity auction.

The Atlantic Salmon Trust has teamed up with US fly-tying star Erin Hyde — better known to her hundreds of thousands of followers as She Ties Flies — to auction a bespoke display depicting the freshwater life stages of wild Atlantic salmon.

The one-of-a-kind piece, unveiled earlier this year, is now on the block via the Trust’s online auction. Proceeds support the charity’s work to restore wild Atlantic salmon.

Erin Hyde is a renowned US-based fly-tyer, world famous on social media as She Ties Flies , with hundreds of thousands of followers who adore her incredibly lifelike creations.

Bidding is open now. For collectors, river trusts, or any salmon-adjacent brand with a lobby wall to fill, this is the definition of on-message art.

Beyond Hyde’s piece, the catalogue spans fishing and sporting trips, ski breaks, private dining, art, food & drink, and gear & clothing — all donor-funded, with proceeds supporting the Trust’s research and habitat restoration projects.

How to bid: Visit astauction.org; online bidding is open now through 30 November, 9pm.
