{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Bonefish/Tarpon Patterns

Can't give you any help on the tarpon flies, but I spent 2 years in Hawaii fishing almost exclusively for bones. Recommend crazy charlies (pink, orange, tan, brown) and in mixed weights and sizes (heavy for deep water and blind casting; light for sight fishing in shallow water with delicate presentations). And if I wasn't fishing with crazy charlies, I was using what was essentially a tan wooly bugger with dumbbell eyes to get it to the bottom and ride with the hook up.

As I look at my bonefish box, it's almost sad how many flies I tied that I need used because you can't go wrong with the ones listed above.
