Da Perch
A compact bucktail streamer built to push water and draw strikes from toothy fish, without wearing out your casting arm.
Using hollow tied buck-tail, schlappen and a peacock eye, this fly moves a lot of water and will get the attention of your favorite toothy critter. Smaller than many modern flies of its type, this fly is easy to cast and produces fish.
