Can’t wait to get back to Mexico
"I haven’t fished this fly yet, but everything I see is tarpon ready. Compact tie, sharp hook, quality finish. If you could just pay for my next trip down, I’d guarantee a silver king on the Pilchard."
Description
Size: #1/0 MINI (2.5" Length), #2/0 (3.5" Length)
A prominent baitfish, especially in Florida, pilchards are known to feed everything from snook, jacks, tarpon, and bluefish to offshore species like albies, runners, and even amberjacks. Being that pilchards are such a prevalent forage fish, it's important to always carry a clean imitation, and the EP Pilchard Fly is nearly impossible to beat. Tied to imitate the pilchard's deep belly, white body, and greenish colored back, this fly is a great imitation that's tied with EP Fibers, a realistic pair of eyes, and is equipped with a weed guard so you can cast right into the mangroves without fear.
The EP Pilchard Fly is a great choice for a variety of ecosystems like open beaches, intracoastal waterways, inlets, tidal rivers, and outflows. An easy fly to cast and present, the EP Pilchard Fly is most effectively fished with a stripped retrieve, and this is a fly should be in your box all year long. Whether you're feeding snook laid up in structure or just working that first trough, the EP Pilchard Fly is always a great fly to start with.
