Fly Tying: Swimbait Chosen One - 4“ Weedless Baitfish

The first video is a new series - Swimbait Flies! These flies are designed around the GB Predator Swimbait Hook from Ahrex Hooks and feature what I call - Swimbait Rigs. Which are simply an modified version of tying Extended Body flies. The Swimbait Rigs allow you to adapt nearly any/all single hook fly recipes to the Ahrex PR378, creating hook point up, weedless flies, that track true. For this video, we look into the Swimbait rigs, and then discuss the nuances of for the rig designed for the 2/0 PR378, and tie a Chosen One variation, swimbait style.
