Flies by Catchy Flies are known for their outstanding quality. This is true for both the tying materials used and the hooks on which the flies are tied with loving craftsmanship. The saltwater flies from Catchy Flies are no exception!
The Tarpon Lightweight black & red is designed by Tiziano Rizzo, a renowned fly tyer. This streamer is not additionally weighted, allowing you to present it very flat if needed, for example, when fishing along mangroves or when directly targeting a fish. However, when paired with an intermediate or sinking line, the pattern quickly dives due to its slim silhouette. The sturdy materials of this pattern are carefully selected and tied onto an ultra-sharp hook. The shortened hook shank ensures that the hook sets more securely and does not slip out even during jumps. An absolute classic for all fly fishers targeting the Silver King in tropical saltwater!
Tip: This is also a very successful pattern for our native pike!
Hook size: #3/0
