Ostrich Tailed Deceiver

  This version of Lefty's Deceiver is fantastic when you want a bit more movement in your fly. The ostrich will move more at slower speeds than the traditional saddle hackle, but can still be fished at pace when needed. You can confidently fish this fly for fresh and salt water predators from trout to tarpon, it just works for everything.
