In this video, Simon ties a killer attractor flats fly. This fly would work great anywhere in the caribbean for Bonefish, Permit, and anything else cruising the flats. It is tied using Hareline's new painted brass eyes. The tan painted brass eyes work perfect for shrimpy or crabby flats flies matching the body colors. This fly also features some polar chenille legs for additional movement. This fly would also work great for Pacific Surf Perch on a more clear day where the fish will key into a smaller, more delicate pattern. Tying these in several different weights is helpful especially when fishing flats as the tides change. Having some unweighted, some with bead-chain eyes , some brass, and some lead will help you cover the board for all tidal situations. Colors and size can be adjusted based on your needs as well. Tie some up and send us some photos of what ate this fly!
