This fly is great for mimicking peanut bunker fish or herring for saltwater fly fishing, and can mimic shad or shiner in freshwater. Tied in the high back style both over and under the hook, and with lots of flash for a tail. This fly really attracts the fish.
Hook:
Gamakatsu SC15 size 1/0
Body:
Super Fiber (royal blue & white) (blood red for gill, and hot pink for under belly)
Flash:
Krystal Flash (blue)
epoxy:
Solarez UV Curing Epoxy "hard thin formula"
