Black & Red UV - SBR - UV Pike fly
Black & Red UV – SBR is a pike fly built around the classic color combo of black and red – long recognized as one of the most aggressive patterns for predators. This version takes it even further with our signature Brilliant Red Nayat, which reacts to UV light. The result? A bold, visible signal that works even in tough conditions.
Available in two lengths: 13 cm and 18 cm – choose the right size depending on water conditions and fish activity.

TARGET SPECIES: Pike and zander, in clear or stained waterThe fly casts light and accurate – easily handled even with a #8 rod, but works best with #9.
Sheds water quickly during false casts and folds into a streamlined bullet shape.
In the water it swells, pulses, and undulates – giving off a strong yet natural signal.
Visually large, yet light and easy to control.You don’t have to animate it – but if you give it some hand action, it can surprise with unpredictable moves.
It also works great with a spinning rod.
Just add a Cheburashka and fish it your way – on the drop, like a jerkbait, or however you like best.
A baitfish pattern that starts working immediately – no overthinking needed.
