For bonefish Crazy Charlies and Blind Charlies in #4 and #6. These fish are not picky when it comes to color but you need to have a selection of different weight eyes for different water depths. I liked lighter flies with natural tan colors in shallow water, 12" deep. Remember to pinch the barb before using. Don't pre-debarb all your flies as this breaks the plating on the hook and they will rust. I do them as I use them and them keep them in a different box as the rust cancer spreads.

For Baracuda my favorite was 2/0 poppers. For everything else bring some clouser minnows in #2.

Remember big forcepts to remove deeply hooked bones and anywhere hooked cudas.
