About this fly

Captain Barrett Brown uses this fly in various color patterns depending on the water clarity and weather conditions. Changing up the weight of the eye will also allow you to fish in it shallow waters to deep water over oyster beds. This is a great fly for black drum or redfish. Try other colors as well.
