In a few months time Fishwest will be hosting our annual trip to the Andros South Lodge and let’s just say some of us are pretty excited! In an effort to get the ball rolling we wanted to talk about an important part of the equation: Fly Selection.
Selecting flies for Bonefish doesn’t have to be a daunting task at all. Generally from my experience bonefish are not really all that picky. A good presentation is much more important than the fly that you choose in most cases. Please keep a few things in mind when choosing flies for Bonefish.
For those who like to spin up their own flies in preparation for a destination trip don’t forget to add a few rubber legs and an orange spawn sack into your shrimp patterns. The rubber legs will give your flies the added benefit of a little extra natural movement. The bright orange spawn sack is bound to grab the attention of the fish. When paired together it makes for a deadly combination that yields great results.
There you have it. Keep all these tips in mind when choosing flies for bonefish. Stay tuned in the future as we continue to prepare for Andros South 2016. For those who are interested in joining us in 2016 there are still spots available. Check it out by clicking HERE.For more information contact us at 877.773.5437
