Hunting Season
This little fellow got its name from the bright orange color it has on the body of the hook. I came up with it one day while I was bored at work. I had the tying material in front of me and thought, it might be nice to throw a pattern I can see from a long way off in the water. Turns out baby tarpon want to eat the hell out of it.. So in my mind that's a win win.
Also it looks like some of the crayfish patterns from back in PA so throw it on a smaller hook and I bet you can crush a couple of smallies on it as well! Good luck!
Recipe:
Hook: TMC 811S 1/0
Thread: Uni Orange 6/0
Body: Orange Estaz
Eyes: Plastic Bead Chain Medium
Tail: Tan Marabou, Orange Buck Tail, and Red Kystal Flash
It's simply, light, and it works. Next time you see it will be (ideally) be in a tarpons mouth!
