Salt Water Fly Tying
An extremely deadly saltwater fly designed by Oliver Owens in Hawaii.
This is a friend of mine name Zino, an extremely good fly tyer, but also extremely modest.
The fly is called the 90%er and is fished with it on the bottom without stripping. The current will do all the work as it will create action through the fox fur. you can experiment with different colors, but this variation seems to be the best.
Recipe:
olive 3/0 waxed thread
Tiemco 811S saltwater hook
5/32 dumbbell eyes
Krystal Flash: root beer / pink shrimp
Artic fox fur: tan
Craft fur: gold
This is my first fly tying video, so please send me a message with any suggestions, I would like to make more, but need more input.
great fly!

Scratch the fact that I said I never catch saltwater fish. Just got back from Clearwater, Florida and caught over 35! A new record for me. ESPECIALLY saltwater! Caught 4 pinfish, one being HUGE, a mangrove or mutton snapper, 18 or 20 whiting, 2 flounder, 2 baby yellowtail jacks, and 6 or 7 ladyfish!!!

Very very nice. I'm gonna start tying those if you don't mind. Even though I never catch saltwater fish, I like to tie saltwater flies:). In fact I'm going to Clearwater beach for three days and I am gonna do some fishing and see if I can catch my first saltwater fish. Besides a pinfish. Anyway, nice fly and keep tying:).
