Red Tarpon Fly & More Trout

I have done a few versions of this salt water fly and just cant get enough of it.  I love the look of salt water feathered flies.  The long needle like nose look, big eyes and a feathered tail that moves in the water like a baitfish, squid, shrimp, or whatever.  Some day I hope to live the relaxed life on the beach chasing bonefish and tarpon on the flats of some tropical island.  If only for a few weeks a year, this would be the life.

Of course the other weeks would be spent hunting trout in high mountain streams.  Here is another skin for you. Tomorrow I will reveal what all the trout skin paintings are for.
