Overview

The Umpqua Fishalicious in Red/White is a versatile saltwater streamer designed by Dave Student. This fly is crafted to imitate a variety of baitfish species, making it effective for targeting a wide range of predatory fish in saltwater environments.

The fly features a spun deer hair head that creates significant water displacement, attracting fish from a distance. Its red and white coloration provides high visibility, making it particularly effective in tannic or off-colored waters. The Fishalicious is tied on a Gamakatsu SL12S hook, known for its strength and sharpness, ensuring solid hook sets. Additionally, the fly includes a prong-style mono weed guard, allowing it to be fished effectively over grass flats and other structures without snagging.

This pattern is especially effective for species such as snook, redfish, trout, bass, and juvenile tarpon. Its ability to suspend when paused over grass makes it a go-to choice for anglers targeting fish in shallow flats.Read More +
