Conundrum

Where am I going to put the new flies I’m tying for Hawaii?  Hmmmm…

Not a lot of room in there.

  1. Bugger box

  2. Those are not going to be your small bonefish. So don’t be afarid to go bigger. My smallest fly here on Aitutaki is a size 2 and the fish are pretty comparable. They like a meal.

  3. These boxes are pretty much untouched from Andros… so… big flies, pretty much all tied by me. Lots of 2’s, some 1/0’s in there with a mix of 4’s and 6’s too.

  4. Bjorn,
    Leave most of your your size 4’s & 6’s at home, some will be fine for really skinny water. Size 2 & 1/0’s are the go to sizes here. What’s more important for Hawaii will be your leader/tippet. 16 & 20# is typical for all that damn coral…leave the 8 # test in the Bahamas.

  5. Yeah… I’m bringing the meat and heavy tippet. Maybe I should take out those #6’s though. That will make some room.
