    Here are a few squids I tied for fishing the Sea of Cortez (Baja) in May as well as a few articulated spiral leeches with UV polar chennile wound in.

    We use squid flies a lot in saltwater, particularly in open water.

    Pretty awesome thread on striper stomach contents (other salty species as well) on that forum. Big fish will eat anything, including squid.

    Great ties Phil.

    Everything eats squid, and if you fry it, I do too.

    I wonder if it would be more effective if we called it a calamari fly.
