    Default Redfish spoon fly

    Anyone have a recipe for a redfish spoon fly? I have no idea how to tie one if these.

    I have tied a couple of spoon patterns and they are a pain in the butt to tie them so that they behave correctly on the retreive. They are one of the VERY few patterns that I will buy rather than tie.

    I probably should mention that I do turn them (I tie sizes 1 and 2) on a universal rotisserie while applying clear Devcon 5-minute epoxy.

    Is it better or easier to use the tubing or the prismatic tape for these?

    For me, the fabric ribbon and the 3M adhesive spray. All that's left is to cut to shape and epoxy.
