Billfish Flies
Built for the most demanding offshore fishing on the planet, our Billfish Flies are hand-tied by anglers who have chased sails, marlin, and dorado from Costa Rica to Baja and beyond. These aren't generic blue-water patterns. Every fly in this lineup has been designed, tested, and refined on actual billfish trips, with feedback from captains, mates, and clients who fish them hard.
Billfish fly fishing is a high-stakes pursuit. When a sailfish comes up on a teaser, you have one chance to put a fly in front of a fish that can hit 60 mph and weigh 100+ pounds. The fly has to swim right, pop right, hold up to repeated strikes, and stay rigged through the chaos of a hookup. Cheap saltwater flies fall apart on the first eat. Ours don't.

What sets our Billfish Flies apart:
Tied with premium saddle hackle from Whiting Farms
Built on heavy Duty Gamakatsu Octopus Saltwater hooks
Sealed with SolarEZ UV resin for durability
Pro-tested color combinations
Designed for sailfish, marlin, dorado, tuna, and other offshore species
All of the tube flies are sold unrigged. They can be fished as a Two segment fly or a single segment.
Perfect Leaders for Rigging our Billfish Poppers.
Our billfish poppers line uses a high quality head from our great partner at Rainy's Flies. That means a popper that floats correctly, pops loudly, and holds its shape after multiple fish, not a foam head that compresses and tears after the first take.
Whether you're prepping for a trip to Quepos, Tropic Star, Cabo, or Guatemala, our Billfish Flies are ready out of the package. Captains and mates who've worked with us regularly request specific patterns for their boats, and we ship orders worldwide to anglers who need flies that won't let them down on a once-in-a-lifetime trip.
