About this fly
Trout Bite This fly is usually used for sight casting to big, laid-up, shallow water sea trout. The name "Bendback" refers to the slight bend made on the hook shank at the throat of the fly. This bend allows the wing materials to flow neatly over the point of the hook and causes the hook to invert in the water with the point in the upright (weedless) position. This inverted design is wonderfully simple and can be seen on other classic patterns like Clouser Minnows and Crazy Charlies.
