Mc Fry Glass Candy

No comments yet

A small transparent baitfish pattern. The Mc Fry Glass Candy is a variation of my Mc Fry Glass Minnow in which I epoxy up the hook shank a bit more. I also use a few different materials as well. This is a very realistic looking fly that is made to mimic small fry or glass minnows. Occasionally fish will be feeding exclusively on these small fish. When they do that, you need to get a good fry imitation out there. I tied this to be very realistic and mimic the small fry perfectly.

Hook: Gamakatsu SC15 size 1/0
Thread: Danville ultra fine monofiliment
Body wrap: Super Pearl Braid, and Super tinsel twist
Fiber: Super Flash Dubbing (Pearl and Holo-Silver)
Eyes: 3/32" silver eyes
Epoxy: Solarez "thin hard" and "bone dry" formula

Music: Sunny, funnysong, ukulele - Bensound.com

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

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.
