Nicholas Hudson –
Fished on a flat near the Yucatán and caught several bonefish with this fly. The chartreuse wing and hot tipped legs really stood out in the sunlight. Easy to tie on and works well in light conditions.
Emily Quinn –
Good performance in shallow waters. The flash and color combination draws fish attention. A reliable choice for bonefish and jack in flat areas.
Phil Coleman –
Used this fly during a morning trip and saw multiple strikes. The bead chain eyes hold well and the legs stay visible even in moving water.
Dan Powell –
Works well for both bonefish and snapper. The light weight makes it easy to cast and the color pattern is very effective in open flats.
