Surf Fly Pink Lady – Hand-Tied by Lee Baermann
Lee Baermann is America’s finest saltwater fly builder. His patterns have caught just about every kind of fish in the California surf. Pick up some of his flies while you still can!
Saltwater flies work great in the surf. I like to fish saltwater flies on the Carolina rig with a 24″ leader. Cast in a fan motion and retrieve slowly, quickly and in a stop-and-start motion back toward shore. This is an essential lure for every surf angler.
