The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.

Chameleon Baitfish

No comments yet

A very simple and versatile pattern tied with mostly Angelina Fibre with big perch in mind. It's inspired by the Magic Minnow which was used with great success by the Vision Fly Fishing guys in Perch Pro.
The fly can be tied only with Angelina Silver Iris if you wish. Use the Sharpie marker to colour the fly to match the baitfish present. Go big or small, for fresh or salt, it's up to you.

Material List
Hook: Ahrex TP610 Trout in #1
Thread: Veevus PB2 140
Body: Angelina Fibre Straight cut in Silver Iris and Wisteria Hot Fix
Flash: Mirror Flash
Throat: Angel Hair in Red
Eyes: 7mm Red/Black
Coat with Liquid Fusion or UV

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
