The Tuscan Bunny | Drew Chicone's Favorite Tarpon Fly (Fly Tying)

While on location in Belize for 2024 Permit Camp, Drew Chicone shared a wealth of salt water fly fishing and fly tying knowledge. This is a late night fly tying session with the crew.
Chicone’s Tuscan Bunny started with spun deer hair but over time he developed a creative variation with a “Fettuccini Foam” head that we now recognize this fly for. The rabbit fur on the back of this fly has a ton of movement. The added foam keeps the fly from getting saturated and keeps it suspended longer. The foam head also adds a more erratic movement when stripped which also allows the rabbit strip to have more movement in the back. This is a great Snook or Tarpon pattern especially to throw shallow or into the mangroves.

I could watch 100 hours of fly development it's what a fly fisherman's mind runs off of.
