Made of microfiber and high-density epoxy, this patent-pending fly is truly unique. The spoon-shaped front and the flexible but tough tail give it amazingly realistic action. This fly has been incredibly successful on a variety of species from trout in Alaska, to bass in Virginia, to tarpon and snook in Florida, and redfish in Texas. Attach tippet to fly with a no-slip mono loop knot for best action. Click here to learn how to tie the no-slip mono loop knot. Made with corrosion resistant black nickel Gamakatsu hooks in sizes 2, 4, and 6. Also available in size 1 with stainless steel weed guard.

SPARKLE & WHITE
Highly visible, this combo is among our most popular for all species. Excellent early morning color. Fun to fish because you can see the fly so well, often allowing you to see the "take".
CHARTREUSE & WHITE
One of the best early season colors. Springtime bass and stripers love ‘em. Highly visible, and among the most fun colors to fish for this reason. Has even caught saltwater catfish in Central America.
SILVER & WHITE
Excellent for conditions where light, shiny baitfish are present. This fly has performed exceptionally well from Alaska’s Copper River, to the coast of Florida, and beyond.
RED & WHITE
Tried and true. More fish have been caught on red and white artificial lures than on any other color combination. Many feel it is far and away the best snook color, and many fine bass and trout fishermen swear by it.
GOLD & GOLD
An excellent all-round color. Deadly for big brown trout and for red-fish. Dark enough to provide a silhouette from below and light enough to be seen against a dark bottom.
COPPER & COPPER
Same as above except sometimes even better for redfish and big rainbows. This is also the preferred color of some excellent smallmouth bass fly-fishermen.
OLIVE & OLIVE
When fishing in very clear water or over an olive/brown bottom, this color can make the difference between a good day and a great one. This is particularly true with larger fish.
MULTI & GREY
This is one of the best clear-water/bright-day colors. Will attract shy fish that might spook from brighter colors in these situations. Excellent whenever dark silver baitfish are present. Largemouth bass gobble them.
BLUE & BLACK
The sparkle-blue front with black tail is the best dirty water color. Blue takes on an almost iridescent hue in dingy water that attracts fish more than any color under these conditions.
BLACK & BLACK
The best leech and eel imitation available. Great for many species in stained water. Surprisingly good saltwater color. Tarpon go for black. Must have this color for those dark days or dingy water conditions.
