Description

The Ozzy Native Flies Cod Snack just got an upgrade, with a little extra sting in the rear, with the new Stinger Cod Snack offering a rear trailer hook for increased hookups to fish. Hooks. This is a subsurface searching pattern that is ideally fished when light conditions aren’t conducive to surface strikes. The weed guard allows it to be cast in snags where Murray Cod and Yellow Belly live and hunt their food without catching a snag every cast.

The Cod Snack is currently available in Murray Cray, White, Chartreuse and Purple  options. Supplied as one single fly, tied on an Ahrex TP610 hook up front, with a smaller SA280 hook in the rear. With some added bulk in the head thanks to a brush collar, these push more water, to get the fish’s attention and take care of pesky short strikes with the trailer hook. Testing over the past summer has seen a 50-50 hookup rate between the two hooks, so these essentially double you chance of pinning that big fish when it comes after your fly.

At Troutlore, we are very proud to have teamed up with Ben from Ozzy Native Flies to be able to offer his fly designs to Australian fly fishers. These are patterns that Ben has developed and proven time and time again to deliver results. These are not ‘pretty’ flies designed for social medial “likes”. These are real fishing flies that work. You can be confident when casting any flies from Ozzy Native Flies that they have delivered results plenty of times before being made available here. Flies shown as in stock are ready to ship now, there is no lead time on our stock of Ozzy Native Flies Cod Snack patterns. We have them here, ready to go.

Of course, if you can’t find a product you are specifically looking for, get in touch and we will see if it can be sourced, and kept in stock. Plus, you can keep up to date with new releases through our newsletter and social media outlets.
