Fly Tying: The Barred & Black with Martyn White

Inspired by Dan Blanton's Whistler, Ed Givens designed the Barred & Black for striped bass but it has since proven its worth all over the world for everything from musky to murray cod. I think it really should be thought of more as a colour option than a pattern in its own right, it lends itself well to whistler, thing and river pig platforms.

Nice tie Martyn, it's a staple here for Barramundi also

I reckon Australia is probably where it's most popular nowadays.
