Shad Flies and Bonefish Flies 18 Years, 3 Months ago  
Has anyone used shad flies for bones? I'm noticing a certain similarity...

Thoughts?

sure, their similar... 18 Years, 3 Months ago  
but not quite the same. When I fished for bones on Exuma, they wanted a very specific light tan Gotcha...and not much else..even a blond color wasn't good enough. The big heavy heads on a shad fly would create different action and look then a fly designed to look like a shrimp

Now, using shad flies for steelhead is a difinite possibility.

Well, I'll put them in the box anyway... odds are fairly high that I won't have that many bones to cast to anyway... probably mostly be catching/casting to other fish.
