Black Death: A classic pattern created by Stu Apt in the early days of fly fishing for Tarpon it is almost the "Poster Child" to represent all Tarpon Flies. This particular pattern is tied Keys style with the hackle collar of the fly starting even with the hook point to help prevent fouling. The thread head is also tied back leaving bare hook shaft foreword a style that was started way back when to accommodate snelling. This pattern belongs in every Tarpon angler's fly box.
