After bringing a few of my fly tying bits back from the UK after the Christmas vacation I made up this fly/lure today. It's the first fly I've put together for 6 years so I was a bit slow and it wasn't the most symmetrical in appearance when finished. The fluo pink neck is polypropylene thread and the body is white fritz over white chenille over ether foam (some of which is poking out as a salmon pink head).
There is a flying treble to increase the chances of locking into the hard beaks of the needle fish and half-beaks that lunge at these surface lures in the Gulf waters. The tail is a mix of buck tail and white marabou.
