How To Tie: The Tarpon Snake | The Only BIG Tarpon Everglades Fly You Need.

[@benjaminfarr2586]

Hammered the tarpon with this fly in Belize this past January. It's the only fly the guides wanted to use when fishing deeper channels, but it worked well in the rivers too. It is also excellent in red/white!

headed to flamingo in a month or so. went last year with a box full of tarpon toads. only managed to jump a smaller one with chartreuse and tan and black and purple variations. was wondering if this would work for the tarpon out in the florida bay, or if it was more specifically for the backcountry side like whitewater bay. do you think a chartreuse variation of this fly would work too? thanks man love your vids

Havent fished a fly that big in years there and why would you use metal eyes...unless your fishing deep?

[@OleFloridaFlyShop]

Yes, fishing down deep!

Haha. You're not wrong. Alot of rhythm in music from the 70s on could be considered James Brown. Sometimes things just universally work. Does the seducer own splayed feathers like James brown technically owns rap music? Haha
