The "Backcountry" Slammer or Backcountry Brush Fly is a modern deceiver style with large eyes and a blend of natural and synthetic fibers in the wing...- an excellent fly with great action for all kinds of gamefish - we would typically include these in a box for tarpon, big snook, striped bass, and other fish that often target medium sized herring type baits.
