How To Tie The E.P. Roosterfish Mullet Fly.

Imagine yourself on the course sand of a Baja beach, racing towards the water which is exploding with the excitement of roosterfish smashing baitfish near the surface of the water that is only 3 feet in depth, but craters off to a depth of hundreds of feet in short order. You can count the rays of a comb protruding from the delicate surface of the Sea of Cortez. You can count the stripes in its pearl and black body. You can see the ultra-white opening of its mouth as it gulps bait in a flash which also somehow happens in slow-motion. Imagine the gratification of making the perfect cast, with the perfectly tied fly that fools this sea beast!
