Flash Surf Candy

 
tied by striblue
Fly Type: Attractor Pattern,
Target Species: Striped Bass,
Recommended Region: Northeast US,
Imitation: General Baitfish,
Material List*:
Hook- 1/0 Mustad; thread- mono; Body- Super Hair and covered by sparkling flash on the OUTSIDE, not in.;Head- epoxy with small stick on eye.
*Materials with links give you direct access to that product at the J. Stockard store.
Tying Instructions: This is a my variation on Bob Popovics surf candy.. The only difference is that the flash is surrounding the superhair instead of incorporated inside the hair... Very effective on bright sunny days in heavy surf. It imitates any number of small baitfish, including silversides and peanut bunker. This is more of an attractor than a specific pattern.
