Dark side

This Articulated Swimmer fly, when dressed in Qantas colours is like candy for Rock Cod.

Have a look at the recipe here it’s relatively easy to tie and it’s caught everything from Barra to Bream.

If you’re having trouble getting started with your salt water fly fishing journey, or just need a little more practice, tie up one of these flies on a #2/0 hook, or one of your own flies dressed in red and white and fish it on an intermediate or sinking line along either natural rocky structure or man made rock walls etcetera.
