I was flipping through an older Fly Tyer magazine tonight and read an article on Stu Apte. His tarpon flies are effective and look fairly simple to tie. Has anyone ever thought about tying a slightly smaller version of these flies to target white bass/wipers/stripers? I'm thinking whites around here would like a white/chartreuse, white/red, or chartreuse/red fly like that. Maybe throw some flash in there for good measure, too.

Has anybody ever tried this? Do I need to quit smoking the funny stuff and just tie Clousers? *G*
