redfish candy

Recommended Posts

I think a redfish candy is just a ducer with lead eyes and a chenille or estaz head. I googled this image, could be wrong, looks like a great fly reguardless. I think rooster feathers, estaz, eyes, some flash, blammo.

I have an article on it and been searching for it but haven't found it. Fishkill is really what I think I remembered what it was though. Should be a good fly.

Hey Andy

 

The redfish candy is a great fly. Make sure you put a weedguard on it if you use leadeyes.

Here's DC Wiggler a similar tie but seems to imitate a jerkbait it can be fished as a bottom bumper or baitfaish. Make sure you use long think feathers for the tail
