Scott Null introduced me to this fly. I highly recommend it. This is the fly that caught me 4 sheephead on the Texas FlyFisher’s 2014 outing. And lost even more than I landed.

Pattern:

Size 4-8 saltwater hook, darker is better
Black size “A” rod wrapping thread (280 denier)
Lead dumbbell eyes, sized to match hook
Rubber band, any color (underbody)
Died olive barred hackle
Black rabbit dubbing
CA glue

Fish this fly with long light leaders.
