East Cape Sardine

99% of the time I fish offshore in the Florida Keys and Baja, Mexico this is the pattern that I use. As the name states it is a sardine pattern that matches them in size and color. To date I have hooked:

• Tarpon
• Black Fin Tuna
• Yellow Fin Tuna
• Skipjack Tuna
• Bonito
• False Albacore
• Amberjack
• Jack Crevalle
• King and Sierra Mackeral
• Rainbow Runner
• Striped Bass
• Dorado
• Striped Marlin

This fly will work on any game fish that feeds on sardines. Colors white, grey, chartreuse and olive.

Sizes 2/0 and 3/0 - $ 8.00 each.
