2-Fly 6" Saltwater Baitfish Selection – EP Baitfish for Striped Bass and Predators

Two large-profile saltwater baitfish flies, each approximately 6 inches long. This selection includes one Blue and White and one Olive and White EP-style baitfish, designed for striped bass and other predators feeding on larger forage.

Description

Capt. Ken’s 6" Saltwater Baitfish Selection gives you two versatile baitfish patterns in proven color combinations for targeting larger saltwater predators.

You will receive:

  • 1 Blue and White Baitfish

  • 1 Olive and White Baitfish

Each fly is approximately 6 inches long and tied on a strong 3/0 saltwater hook. Synthetic wing material is stacked to create a full, substantial baitfish profile from top to bottom, giving predators a larger target to pursue.

These flies have a relatively slow sink rate and are designed primarily for fishing the upper portion of the water column. They can also be fished deeper with sinking or sink-tip fly lines.

Why Fish These EP-Style Baitfish?

Large predatory fish often focus on bigger forage, and these flies provide the profile and size to match that food source. The two color combinations give you options for different water conditions and baitfish appearances.

The synthetic wing material creates bulk without relying on a heavily weighted fly, allowing for a slower-sinking presentation.

How to Fish Them

Fish these baitfish on floating or intermediate lines to keep them in the upper water column. Use sinking or sink-tip lines when you need to reach deeper holding fish.

Experiment with steady strips, longer pulls, and pauses to imitate a fleeing or injured baitfish.

Capt. Ken’s Guide Tips

  • Start near the surface: These flies are designed to fish in the upper water column, making them useful when predators are chasing bait near the surface.

  • Choose your color: Try Blue and White or Olive and White based on the local forage and water conditions.

  • Match your fly line to the depth: Use floating or intermediate lines for shallow presentations and sink-tip or full sinking lines to reach deeper fish.

  • Vary your retrieve: Start with steady strips and change the speed or add pauses until you find what triggers strikes.

  • Target larger predators: The 6-inch profile is a good option when striped bass and other gamefish are feeding on larger baitfish.
