Field Notes

Use this floating saltwater fly when fish are feeding near the surface or in shallow water. It is a good choice for stripping back with short pauses to imitate a fleeing baitfish and trigger aggressive strikes.

Pros

  • Floating profile stays high in the water column
  • Baitfish imitation for predatory saltwater species
  • Can be worked with simple strip retrieves

Cons

  • Not ideal when fish are holding deep
  • May be less effective in heavy wind or rough surface chop
