The Clydesdale Silver Bait is a real big fish catcher, it's tied with highly mobile materials such as tinsel that flutters and undulates with every twitch and pull. These flies draw big pike in that's for sure. They can be fished with confidence on all waters at any time of the year. The best retrieve with this pattern is a slow figure of eight or roly-poly. If it's big pike or zander you are looking for this baitfish imitaiton is a must-have. Tied on the reliable Tiemco 600SP hook.
Here's what well known fly fisherman Rob Edmunds had to say about this fly after a recent trip to Costa Rica:
The Silver Baitfish soon became our favourite fly as it accounted for 2 Rooster fish, 6 Jack's and 4 Tuna in just 3 trips around the 15 to 20lb mark. In fact the Silver Baitfish was so successful it was easily outfishing other visiting anglers using spoons and plugs ...this in itself caused a quite a stir.
