Anyone have a picture of a fly called the Mosca Magic, or variations of it called the Clouser Magic or Rasta Magic? If no photo, a recipe would work as well. I read about it from a guide service in Baja and would like to tie some. Thanks guys.

Thanks Bob! I actually know the Tarpon Snake quite well...it hooked the only tarpon I've ever hooked Down in Belize many guides refer to it simply as "the chicken". You probably already knew that though... Great pattern! My old boss, Jeff Currier, told me about it originally I think a few years ago. Does the weight of the hook bend out-weigh that of the bead chain eye so that it rides hook point down? Is that the reason for bead chain? Ever tie the eyes on the bottom of the hook shank or does that take up too much hook gape? Thanks for the post. I'm definitely going to tie some of those in tan for baja...

Mostly from shore, but will most likely take a local panga out for a few days. This tail was done by whipping a loop around the two material colors (black and white), with mono thread. Whip finished and glued. It's an extra step but I really think it adds to the pattern. I will definitely tie up some of your color suggestions.

Headed back to Baja in May....seeing if anyone has been down there in the last year that could suggest any patterns that performed well on the mighty pez gallo. Been tying both mullet and sardina patterns "EP" style. Attached is one of them. Thanks in advance.
