It’s no secret that the Gotcha is one of the greatest bonefish flies of all time. We’d go out on a whim and say it has probably caught more bonefish than any other fly pattern in the world, and we use a lot of them.
However, our bonefish on South Andros really seem to have a fetish for rubber legs. So, naturally one of our go-to bonefish flies combines the two! We call it the Rubber Legged Gotcha for obvious reasons, and its a great fly to have in your box on your next trip to South Andros.
Here’s the step by step to help get you get stocked up.
