Here’s the latest is a series of “down-and-dirty guide fly” videos from Alvin Dedeaux of All Water Guides. His creation, the AD Krab, is certainly not going to win any beauty contests, but Alvin says that redfish just love it. And when a guide who spends as much time on the water as Alvin does says that a fly works, you believe him. I’m sure it will also draw strikes from a variety of warmwater game fish, as well.
