Hi Guys
Has anyone got a pic of a gotcha fly ? I have allways heard them being mentioned but am yet to find a pic or fly itself . Please can someone either post a pic or explain how it is tied
Thanks
Adrian

Gives fairly clear instruction as to tying process and desired result. Have found that as substitute for craft fur (which is pretty cool though somewhat thin on the ground here in ZA) you can go 'typical' charlie route of calftail wing or sparse tan / shrimp polar fibre & fox hair blend. A lot also depends on what you're gonna be fishing for & conditions - have seen these tied ultra sparse for typical bonefishing in skinny ultra clear water and conversely 'fuller' for local surf & estuarine conditions. Very good fly & simple enough to concoct. Good luck!
