The Little Flounder Fly Pattern

A Little Flounder Fly

There might already be a fly pattern out there in the World Wide Web but this is my variation to challenge me using these patterns. I’m not sure if a redfish or a speckled sea trout will even take this fly. However it might not be a winner for Haddrell’s Point Marsh Madness Fly Tying Challenge, I’m hoping that it might spark some interest into developing something new.
