Design Inspiration & Detail
Another great fly for fishing South Florida and Caribbean flats. The pearlescent body and multi colors of metallic ribbon make this fly perfect for attracting all crustacean eating predators. As always, the metallic flash really gives the fly some life. Be creative and change up colors. Options for upgrading the pattern are endless.
Target Species
This particular fly was designed to attract Bonefish and Permit – jacks and many other species will also take the fly.
