Surf Candy - Bob Popovics Surf Candy - Epoxy Minnow Baitfish Fly - SaltwaterFlies.Com
Bob Popovics' Surf Candy
Bob Popovics' Surf Candy is the epoxy streamer fly that started
a revolution in modern fly patterns for saltwater gamefish. This tough epoxy streamer tied
with synthetic materials is a perfect imitation of small, slender baitfish like
silversides, sand eels, and small anchovies. The Surf Candy is famous
for it's durability and attractiveness to a wide range of
species including striped bass, bluefish, and false albacore,
but any fish that prey on small, bright baitfish will love the Popovics' Surf Candy. Note:
We are now also offering the "Candy Eel" - a longer version of the Surf Candy also designed
by Popovics.

The Popovics' Surf Candy is tied on the Tiemco 811S #1/0 hook, and is approximately
3 3/4 inches (9.5 cm) in length. The "Candy Eel" is a longer fly - approximately 5" (13 cm),
and it features a yellow eye and a pearly lateral line, otherwise it is quite similar to the original
Surf Candy. These fly designs are by Bob Popovics - tied by Umpqua Feather
Merchants. Bob Popovics is a master fly tyer and one of the most skilled saltwater fly
anglers that we have seen in action; we applaud him on his fine fly designs.
Instructions for tying Popovics' Surf Candy fly can be found on the Atlantic Saltwater
Fly Rodders website at: http://www.aswf.org/saltwater_flies_for_web/bob_popovics/saltwater_flies_bob_surfca.html.
