What fly?

Saltwater Fly-Fishing

Fly selection question:

Muddy low tide flat on the side of a large river.
Tide 2/3rds out and falling.
We visually identified a half dozen decent sized reds working the flat.
We threw several different flies, most variations on the clouser shape and after putting the flies pretty much where we wanted, only had one chase and no takers.
Visibility had to be a problem.

What would y’all throw?
Dupre Spoons?
Other spoons?
Something with a rattle?

What?

A few of the Capts in West Ashley throw the Murdich Wiggler in Black and Root beer when the waters are muddy. Can’t keep them on the shelf in the shop.

In general, the flies sounded right to me.
