SaltFlys Bendback Flies
Proper construction of Bendback Flies is critical to its weedless nature and ability to hook the fish. Â I’ve seen far too many poorly designed bendback flies which have no chance of hooking a fish due to the way the hook is bent. Â I’ve seen bendback flies which are simply over-dressed, thinking this will improve their weedless qualities. Â SaltFlys Bendback Flies have the correct bend in the hook, and not over-dress with material. Â They are built to hook snook, redfish, and seatrout in the deepest grass. Â They are built to perform!

For those of you who might be interested in building your own bendback flies, I have an old video on YouTube. Granted, there are several brands out there who produce bendback hooks at a premium price. I actually worked with Gamakatsu on one of them. However, you can make your own. My video explains the subtlety of how to bend a hook correctly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25oncoC1dWA
