Designed thousands of miles away on a Pacific atoll, this fly crossed an ocean and found a second home on the flats of the Florida Keys. Bonefish, it turns out, have remarkably consistent taste regardless of zip code. The sparse dressing means it sinks without drama, and the flash says 'small shrimp' in a language that transcends geography. Proof that good design travels well.

The quintessential bonefish fly. Craft fur wing over a flashy body. Lands soft, sinks fast, gets eaten. The standard by which all other bonefish flies are measured.

The bonefish fly that started the flats revolution. Bead chain eyes, crystal flash body, and a calf tail wing. Simple, deadly, and endlessly imitated.

#2 - #1/0
Bob Clouser's legendary lead-eye pattern, adapted for Keys fishing. The weighted eyes create a jigging action that imitates a wounded baitfish in the channels and deeper flats.
