This is based off a fly called Corbina Candy. Corbina are all over the place this time of year at the beaches I fish; lots of people catching them on Surfin' Merkins, but I haven't had luck with them. Since I've been meaning to try tying some other crab patterns, I thought I'd give this a try. Heading out tomorrow morning.
I've been liking the ragged look of some of the carp flies I've been tying. Guess that carried over to this.
