It's Like King Midas

Recommended Posts

Mar17003.jpg

This fly is an impression of a Midas Cichlid (Amphilophus Citrinellus) which you may find swimming in South Florida's canals. These bright little fish are both foes and prey for Peacock Bass. I constructed this fly from orange EP 3-D fiber with white fibers for a beard, with a little Holo-Flash thrown in. All lashe to a Gakamatsu #4 b/c you never know what else is in the canals! I really liked the shades in the 3-D blend, I hope they come thru well in the photo. I hope to make a return someday to S. Fl and let this fly swim.
