Bonefish Bitter
All Points Fly Shop + Outfitter


The Bonefish Bitter was developed back in the 1980's by Craig Matthews. My version uses Elk hair and a slight hint of blue/purple in the epoxy (which I find helps imitate a lot of the crabs you see on the flats in the Caribbean). This pattern has accounted for countless bonefish and permit landed.
