Tied by Brian Wise for Flymen Fishing Company
Coming in at under 4 inches, this Fish-Skull Double Deceiver variation is super versatile. This fly will turn the heads of stripers in both freshwater and saltwater, big trout, every bass on earth, and snook in the mangroves.
The craft fur brings tons of extra movement and the Fish-Skull Baitfish Head quickly drops this little fly down to the ideal depth while adding a realistic baitfish profile.
