900 PERMITS WITH THE AVALON FLY
We are proud to announce that Avalon Permit Fly has reached the impressive number of 900 Permits captured and released in Cuba!! This fly created by Mauro Ginevri in November of 2012 continues to prove that is of the most effective patterns to fly fishing the valued Permit, and has also been successfully tested in other Caribbean destinations.
AVALON FLY
The Avalon Fly is the result of scientific and technical research, which lasted for years. After getting several poor results in the past and despite the best flies used by Permit fishing experts, we realized that the instinctive reaction of the permit was first, to run scared when detecting the presence of something not familiar.It is known that permit are very clever fish. For this reason, improving the presentation and the position of the fly in the water resulted in more strikes.
This fly has been tested both in the sea and in a swimming pool, comparing it to other patterns that were potentially attractive to permit. Viewing it underwater, we realized that some flies were falling face down as they sank, while others began to spin after the first cast and as the fly was being stripped.
So after trying fly after fly, we developed one with the following characteristics:
- A fly that when it enters the water, it sinks with the hook up.
- The fly now sits straight up keeping its balance and swims naturally, without turning or exposing the hook.
- It SINKS faster than other patterns and it stays linear when stripping the line, simulating a shrimp.
The Avalon Permit Fly imitates a giant shrimp with its size of 9 cm in total, tied on a #2 hook, using materials such as: rabbit, orange arctic fox tail, with pearl embroidery thread, rubber bands of red and black and crystal flash that imitates the antennae. The colors of marabou and rabbit may vary from the bottom, depending on the environment in which you are fishing.
The eyes are 3 or 4 mm. long, which allows the blending of materials such as marabou, rabbit and fox tail with the water.
