A good selection of Trevally flies are available from most reputable fly fishing stores but a few important factors still render a fly either useful or useless. First and most important is the hook. Make sure the fly is tied on a big enough hook that has the strength to endure an extremely hard battle. Pure stainless hooks are useless and usually the nickel or cadmium hooks work best. They may not last as long in your box but at least they won’t bend open during your fight with a fish of a lifetime. The hook gape is important. Many fly tiers use excessive epoxy or build the head of the fly up too much, closing the gape of the hook. We recommend flies tied on 4/0-8/0 hooks.
