Example descriptions from card deck:
Tarpon Glow: This fly is said to imitate the Palolo worm, which some anglers believe has a narcotic effect on tarpon. The worm runs in swarms, most commonly at extreme low tides during the course of the full moon. The tarpon sips the worm off the surface, although it is take below the surface as well.
Corsair FishHead: Like many of Jack Gartside's flies, the FISHHEAD uses a body of corsair tubing. Silver and gold tubing, amber marabou and grizzly hackle, plus a few strands of iridescent flashabou make this an excellent fly for striped bass or bluefish. It is tied in various colors to imitate the seasonal baitfish of the New England coast
Muddler Minnow: Change artist of the imitations - this streamer is often mistaken for a nymph, emerger, grasshopper, or sculpin. Typically it is fished below the surface and retrieved in slow, steady pulls, with a pause between each pull. This action is intended to imitate a foraging smaller fish
Bar Fly: Created by the late Charlie Benson, this is considered the most productive striped bass imitation around. Properly tied, the BAR FLY is extremely durable, using mylar, grizzly hackle, white (polar bear or goat) hair, and a tag of red wool. The coloring is said to emulate the silversides, a popular forage fish of striped bass.
Jock Scott: Created by Donald Rudd, an eminant British fisherman whose nickname was Jock Scott, this flamboyant wet fly is used to fish steelhead and salmon. Originally fished in greased line technique (weighted and deep) the current method is to fish the JOCK SCOTT ass a "damp" fly, just below the surface/
Crazy Charlie: Orvis renamed this fly the CRAZY CHARLIE (it was originally referred to as nasty Charlie by its designer, Bob Nauheim). Tied in a variety of colors (pink pictured), it has a weighted eye at the head, enabling the fisherman to reach the bottom in a hurry. Fishing this fly along the sandy bottom, creating puffs of mud or sand, attracts feeding fish.
