Materials: Four Hot Orange Barred Orange Rubber Legs, Orange Cross-cut Rabbit Strip, Holographic Black Cactus Chenille, Black Schlappen Feather, EP Crab/Shrimp Eyes – Large
Notes:
The Blackbone is a fly that is a crab pattern that has a huge profile. It is used to cast to feeding black drum that enjoy eating crabs. I’m sure that a redfish would also find the Blackbone tasty on the flats as well.
