This is a 9” articulated fly, with a hidden rattle. It has a 5/0 Sakuma 545 Manta Extra hook up front, and a Sakuma Manta 545 Extra 3/0 hook in the back. The hooks are connected using A beaded 60lb multi strand wire link. This particular pattern is built entirely out of a custom made brush (See pics for an example). It uses all synthetic fibres with long, straight fibres to create the length, and shorter fuzzy fibres to build up the bulk. I also use Hedron Magnum Flashabou throughout, as well as Angelina fibre, which is an ultra fine flash to add a bit of contrast and extra movement. Brush flies are almost certainly the most durable flies. This is because every single fibre is placed inside a large wire loop and then spun up. This sandwiches all of the fibres inside the wire, creating an absolutely ‘bite proof’ fly. In my opinion, all synthetic flies are also much more durable. This is proven with testimonies from multiple customers, that they have had over 100+ pike on a single fly, without having to retire it... The eyes on this fly are tightly compressed together, to create an ultra thin head. This gives the fly more of a side to side, jerk action. I personally throw this pattern with no issues on a 9wt, but a 10wt would be more suited if you require the extra distance.
