General Saltwater Patterns
Squish's Shrimp
The Squish's Shrimp was designed over several trips to CXI specifically to target a species that has become an obsession of mine - the Triggerfish.
So many other species also love them, it's now my go to Flats pattern.
Fulling Mill have tied some up for us on size 2 and 1/0 Gamakatsu SL12s hooks, so make sure you have some in your flats box!

Julia
Julia was created to look like something edible to several flats species, but most importantly it was made to stand out against a backkground of broken coral, sand and pebbles. Standing out in a crowd with an orange highlight, this fly was named for a formed Australian Prime Minister. Effective on everything from Trevally, Permit and Tuskfish to Slatey Bream and anything that likes to eat FOOD. Fish it on tough leaders of 9' or longer, and best fished with a loop knot. Let it stand still, crawl it along the bottom or twitch it fast - feed that fish!
