{{+1}}Rubber legged gotcha – orange & pearl{{-1}}
{{start}}
If your heading off on a fishing trip the gotcha fly in a few colour combinations and a couple of sizes should definitely be included in you fly box. I was looking at the Fulling Mills bonefish flies and one of them was predominately orange with a pearl body ... this is my version of that combination. It doesn't matter if it's fresh or salt water orange is one of those trigger colours for fish.{{end}}
{{+1}}Rubber legged gotcha – Etu inspired{{-1}}
{{start}}
The story line was that the bonefish had refused every fly they had offered the day before so for the next days outing Etu tied this fly on the beach and then they walked straight into the water and immediately hooked a fish ... gee it must be a good fly. Anyway I do like it because Aitutaki bonefish do seem to like flies that incorporate a yellow component.{{end}}
{{+1}}Red TBH CDC black fuzzel jig bugger{{-1}}
{{start}}
This fly is one of a series of 4 woolly bugger flies that I tie specifically for river fishing and if I only had one woolly bugger in my river fishing fly box this would be the one.{{end}}
{{+1}}Silver TBH CDC black sparkle fuzzel bugger{{-1}}
{{start}}
This one of the 4 colours of TBH jig buggers that I carry in my river fly box. It's a great buggy looking fly that sink well and swims hook point up so less likely to get hooked up on the bottom othan flies that swim hook point down.{{end}}

{{+1}}Tidal flats shrimp – orange and brown{{-1}}
{{start}}
This orange and brown size #2 hook version of my tidal flats shrimp is my first choice of fly when targeting feeding trigger fish. It stands out in the storm of mud and other debris that trigger fish stir up as they forage around for food.{{end}}
