Umpqua Chewy's Tarponator Chouinard Black/Purple #2/0

Umpqua Fly Chewy’s Tarponator Chouinard is a highly effective tarpon pattern developed on the West Coast of Florida for heavily pressured migratory fish. Its slim, low‑bulk profile makes it easy to cast accurately and helps you achieve consistent hook‑ups, even when fish are wary.

The fly’s slimy, wiggling action creates a very lifelike movement in the water that quickly draws attention from cruising and laid‑up tarpon. The design helps to prevent fouling, so the fly tracks correctly on each presentation and keeps its clean, proven silhouette.

This version of the Tarponator comes in size 2/0, a versatile size for a wide range of tarpon situations, from clear flats to channels. Available in two effective colour combinations, it allows you to adapt to light conditions and fish behaviour.
