Redfish Candy!
Redfish Candy!
Got these Flies from Brad of Wade on the Fly, great ties hopefully I'll be persuading some reds to eat them pretty soon.
Brad tied these to order for me, $50 for the dozen all are of superb quality and proven flies for the local fish, Brad's a great gus if anyone is looking for some flies he's your man.
I ordered these and he had them tied up and ready for collection the next day.
you can contact him via his email [email protected]
I will keep you posted on any successes i may have with them.

I really like that Black over Gold EP minnow. They all look like great flies though.

they look good.
There are no limits, except for the ones we put on ourselves.

Re: Redfish Candy!
Last night was my first chance to get out and try the flies, I started out with gold black EP fibre and after many good shots attailing reds, with only 1 swipe, I switched to the chartreuse fly in the right of the original pic. I don't remember the names of any of them.
After stalking a school of tailers I managed to drop it right in the sweet spot in front of the lead fish, a couple of short strips and Boom chaka Boom, fish on.
A great fight on the 7wt, he nearly had me to the backing twice, 28" and fat.
