Carnage Attractor

How it's tied

The Carnage Attractor is typically tied on a size 6 to 14 hook. The pattern is characterized by its vibrant, multi-colored body and flashy wing material.

The body is often tied with brightly colored dubbing, segmented with wire or floss, and finished with a high-vis post material. The fly's wing is tied with flashy synthetic materials, such as Flashabou or Krystal Flash, which add sparkle and movement to the fly.

The Carnage Attractor also features a prominent hackle, tied parachute style around the post, which aids in floatation and adds an enticing fluttering action. Despite its seemingly complex appearance, the pattern can be tied with a variety of materials and color combinations, making it a versatile and creative fly to tie.

What it mimics

The Carnage Attractor doesn't mimic any specific insect or prey item. Instead, it's designed to grab attention and trigger aggressive strikes from fish. The combination of bright, flashy materials and the fly's lively action in the water makes it highly visible and enticing to fish.

Where it's used

Due to its eye-catching design, the Carnage Attractor is highly versatile and can be used in a variety of fishing scenarios. It's especially effective in stained or turbulent waters where more subtle patterns might go unnoticed.

It can be fished in both streams and lakes, and is useful for targeting a range of species, from trout to bass. Whether you're casting into a fast-moving mountain stream or a calm lake, the Carnage Attractor is designed to stand out.
