Umpqua Big Fish Deceiver Chartreuse/White #3/0

Umpqua Fly Big Fish Deceiver is a scaled-up version of the classic Deceiver, built for targeting large predatory species such as pike, big perch, zander and saltwater predators. Its simple construction creates a clean baitfish profile that moves naturally on the strip and pause, triggering aggressive strikes from fish that feed on smaller baitfish.

The Big Fish Deceiver is tied on a strong 3/0 hook to handle hard fights and powerful runs. The long, flowing tail and slim body push just the right amount of water without becoming tiring to cast, even during a full day of fishing with sinking or floating lines. Fish it with steady strips, long pulls or sharp jerks to imitate a wounded baitfish and cover different depths in lakes, rivers or coastal waters.

This fly works well in clear as well as slightly coloured water and can be used both from boat and shore. A solid choice whenever you need a larger profile fly that still casts smoothly and keeps fishing correctly throughout the retrieve.
