Poon Candy Tarpon Fly

Poon Candy Tarpon Fly

The Poon Candy is a high-movement tarpon fly built to trigger aggressive eats when fish are keyed in, pressured, or refusing standard patterns.

Designed and tied by FINATICS Fly Company, this pattern blends Voodoo Fox Fiber with a flowing Foxy Brush profile to create a lifelike baitfish silhouette that stays alive in the water. Every strip, pause, and swing produces natural movement that tarpon cant ignore.

From crystal-clear flats to stained backcountry water, the Poon Candy delivers the perfect balance of profile, motion, and visibility to get noticedand eaten.
