Saltwater Flies - Fly tying tutorials

92 videos • 34,802 views • by McFly Angler Saltwater flies are usually large streamers made to mimic baitfish like a sardine or anchovy, however some fish feed on small shrimp and crabs as well. Many bonefish flies tend to be tied quite small and are twitched on the bottom rather than swam quickly higher in the water column. Learn to tie these saltwater flies and make them custom to your liking. Fly tying is an art, but not just an art to look at. Use this form of artistic creativity to catch fish, and tweak your flies to what you feel (or know) the fish will love to eat. Catch more fish, and have that feeling of pride when you do because they bit one of YOUR flies! There is no greater feeling in the world then to catch a fish on a fly you tied yourself. So go give it a try! Contrary to popular belief, fly tying doesn't, and shouldn't cost a fortune. Most of the materials I use for my flies can be purchased for very little. In fact, the majority of my flies use materials that can be purchased for under $10, and can tie 10's or even 100's of flies. Don't waste your money on expensive material, tie economically, but also catch fish doing it!
