White curly tail perch fly

When I was growing up, a white Curly tail jig with an orange jig head was the hottest thing you could use to fish for perch. The perch have not changed their love for white jigs in the last 35 years and this imitation of it, is loved just as much as the plastic one. Try it in larger sizes for other species such as Zander or Pike.
