Current Tags for This Pattern / Epoxy / Flash / Krystal Flash / marabou / zonker / Bunny Split![]() tied by Dble Haul Fly Type: Attractor Pattern, Target Species: Pike, Recommended Region: not available Northeast US, Alaska, Western Canada, Eastern Canada, Central Canada, Material List: Here's a pattern that I messed around with the past few seasons and have had some success with, particularly on bigger fish. The freely swinging twin tails seem to drive them nuts. Bunny Split Hook: Dai-Riki #810 or equivalent, 3/0 Thread: 3/0 Tail guard: Wire loop Lower tail: Magnum zonker strip Tail flash: Krystal flash Upper tail: Magnum zonker strip Collar: Three layers of marabou Eyes: Doll eyes Head: 5 minute epoxy Tying Instructions: Materials are tied in the order listed. I use 24 gauge galvanized wire for the tail guard. Presentation Tips: Chartruese and yellow (pictured here) performed best, with the usual red/white and red/yellow doing well also. This fly needs a heavier rod to cast (marabou and magnum zonker = sponge), but its potential payoff is worth the effort to me. As usual, a steady cadence is the best retrieve. The rabbit tails will do all the work in the water. | Other Flies Tied by Dble Haul Members That Bookmarked This Fly Also Bookmarked...
