This fly imitates a large shad or other baitfish such as a Gizzard Shad or a Blueback Herring. It is tied on a wire harness (see pictures) with 2 thick-wire Gamakatsu or Owner tarpon hooks. It can be tied in sizes from 7- to 12-inches, and features a Cohen’s Creatures minnow tail. Easy to cast because the synthetic materials shed water much better/quicker than most natural materials. Weight-balanced for easy casting.
