Saltwater Fly Tier List - Saltwater Edge ranks the top flies!

[@Sir_Defyable]

As a mostly night time angler, whether on fly or gear, I love flies that I can work extra slow in dark colors. My go to is a Dragon Tail Deceiver (the “pipe cleaner” style dragon tail- not the curly tail) in all black. The tail doesn’t need to do much but a slight wiggle and the fish can feel it in the water and find it. Even holds onto some tiny bubbles that release slowly while you drift it along. Double S tier for me 😍 Great video nice to see the fly anglers represented

Nice job, good way to discuss the topic.

Love bonito bunnies

Great video, one thing that I think that also is important to note when choosing a fly is where are you fishing. Are you on a beach, on a jetty or on a boat. I think that throwing a Beast fly would be a lot easier from the back of a boat than say standing on a beach or on a Jetty with cross wind.

You are 100% correct on that one!

Consider the Eel Punt and similar eel imitations. Killer in Maine in low light conditions.

[@SaltwaterEdge]

Eel imitation is definitely missing from this list! Although I’ve seen Coby spin up some nice eel flat wings. What ranking would you out the eel punt in?

[@richardfleming4850]

For me they’re an S, alongside sand eel, crab, shrimp, and Deceiver-type (esp. mackerel) baitfish patterns. I’ve done well enough with eel punts in daylight situations to elevate them out of C.

Crab flies are S tier, everyone knows that

It's not good if we can't see the fly's you're talking about through your hi light box

[@SaltwaterEdge]

you'll just have to watch the video and find out which flies ended up where
