Raghead Crab

This is a Crab that is on most Yucatan and Belizean lodges fly lists, and for good reason it has accounted for hundreds of permit and bonefish.

Bauer Crab

Will Bauers crab pattern is a great permit fly that works all over the Caribbean. It's a style that lends itself well to size, weight and colour adjustments, making it a good option for other species ...

Bunny Bone

Designed by Florida Keys guide Jeffrey Cardenas, this shrimpy little number is a great addidtion to the bonefish box.

Joe-to-go

The Joe-to-go works best as a skinny water fly for tailing fish, but can be weighted for deeper work. It land soft and does a good job of imitating mantis shrimp or other crustaceans.

Bonefish Bitters

Pop's Bonefish Bitters is an absolute classic bonefish fly imitating small crabs developed b. It's fairly snag resistant because of the deer hair wing and I find it works best over rock, coral flats a...

Big Ugly

Aaron Adams's Big Ugly is an effective ghost shrimp mantis shrimp imitation. It's on the big side for a bonefish fly, but it's simple, durable and deadly in the right situations.

Gorrel's Hackle Shrimp

Gorrel's Hackle Shrimp is a seriously underrated shallow water bonefish fly. It's incredibly effective, especially on broken coral bottoms or sand with sparse grass, I have supreme confidence in the p...

Liquorice Allsort

The liquorice allsort is essentially a claret bumble muddler variant that originated in Scotland's central belt and has become popular among loch fishers as far afield as the Shetland islands.

Shenk's Sculpin

An oldie but a goodie, Shenk's sculpin is a deadly little streamer pattern that works for trout and bass anywhere you find sculpins, bullheads, miller's thumbs or similar small minnows.

Fox Squirrel Crayfish

This simple little crayfish imitation is great for spring smallmouth bass. It's durable, easy to tie and offers an ideal silhouette for the bass.

Barr's Viz-A-Dun

John Barr's Viz-A-Dun is a great little mayfly pattern that is durable, floats well and makes a great indicator style dry fly for hanging a small emerger or micro dry behind.

Sand Fly

This sand fly imitation is one of two that are listed in John Reid's Clyde Style flies. It's a great fly for early to mid season fishing and well worth having in your box.

Copper Nymph

The Copper Nymph is a Scottish fly that could be seen as something of a precursor to the Copper John, but it's a fantastic river pattern for trout and grayling in its own right.

Duo Style Klinkhamer

Whether you call it the duo, New Zealand style, hedged bet or klink & dink, hanging a nymph of of a dry fly is an absolutely deadly method at times.

Dark Needle

The dark needle is a great pattern from Edmonds & Lee's "Brook and River Trouting". It's ideal toward the end of the season and is very effective when there are small stoneflies on the water.

Lime Trude

The Lime Trude is an effective attractor dry. Representing nothing specific, it's an ideal choice for prospecting, especially with a nymph dropper.

Jig Hook Peeping Caddis

The peeping caddis is an absolutely fantastic nymph for trout and grayling year round. This jig hook version is ideal for all styles of nymphing and should be in every river angler's box.

Deep Flatwing

This version of the popular flat wing is ideal when fishing at depth with fast sinking lines. The hidden tungsten cone sinks the fly at a rate comparable with the faster sinkers which helps avoid tan...

Lightsaber

The Lightsaber is a very effective fly for pollock, cod, coalfish and other cold saltwater species. Try it in various colours and sizes for different locations.

Jack Frost

The Jack Frost is an old still water lure pattern that has lost popularity over the years. However, it is still very effective and this modern competition style mini-lure version is a great choice for...

Dirty Yellow Mayfly

This bushy top dropper can be very effective around mayfly time, but is also worth having in the box later in the season too.
