Booby Toad - Chartreuse - Size 2/0
In Stock • Bozeman, MT
Description
A modern twist on an old classic -- the tarpon toad. Booby eyes have become increasingly popular in destinations like the Florida Keys and beyond for tarpon flies as they aid in keeping that fly perfectly suspended in the water column.
From the tyer:
"The late Captain Darrell Key, my best friend and fishing partner for over 40 years, was the one who took my original marabou tarpon toad and added the large foam eyes. Darrel guided in the Keys, Homosassa and the panhandle with that fly for many years.
We were using it for skinny water redfish, snook, sea trout and of course tarpon.
I am confident it will work on many other species, including stripers and bass, as does the original toad. Toad’s Rule!"

I called Yellow Dog and spoke to Xander in the fly shop, explaining my upcoming trip to the lower Mississippi to chase Bull Reds. He set me up with a perfect assortment of flies to target Reds. Thank you Xander ! I have no hesitation recommending you to anyone !
