Design Inspiration & Detail
Having a sandy colored Clouser or shrimp fly in the box is always a smart idea. Adding colored crystal flash or banded fur makes the pattern even better. Using olive, copper, orange, pink, red, purple, blue, black, and numerous others simply give the fly amazing life. Have fun experimenting!
Target Species
This particular fly was designed to attract Bonefish and Permit – many other species will also take the fly.
