Fished in a clear lake this morning and caught a large Tarpon with the Millhouse Tarpon Toad – Ghost. The fly looked natural and stayed on the line well. Great for clear water conditions.

The hook placement and weight distribution are solid. It worked well in a shallow area with visibility. Would recommend to anyone targeting Tarpon in clear water.

Used this fly during a morning cast in a transparent bay. The Tarpon reacted immediately. The Gamakatsu hook holds up well and the pattern matches the natural look.
