Simple baitfish - but big

It's Saturday morning, wind blowing 10-15knots and boat is at the mechanics
So, a little on tying today

As I have been very interested lately in tying big flies up to and over 15cm long

One big influence is Norbert Renaud whom I found on www.flydreamers.com (great site - check it out)
His Simple Baitfish pattern is just so to tie, but is a great looking pattern that should work well for the saltwater species here in Darwin (anywhere really!)

He has a great video on the style -Simple Baitfish
He sells flies too, you can contact via his blog - Flies with attitude blog

Once some materials arrive I will be attempting a few myself - update to follow
