Bob Popovics looked at the subtlety of saltwater fly fishing and chose violence. The Banger's cupped face hits the water and creates a concussion report that fish hear from thirty feet away. It is the car alarm of the fly world -- impossible to ignore, frequently irritating, and completely effective at getting attention. Redfish come to investigate. They stay to eat.

Tied by Nick Vlahos
The most versatile saltwater fly ever tied. Lead eyes sink it into the strike zone. Chartreuse/white is the Gulf Coast standard.
