Learn to tie this topwater Game Changer variation.

This Game Changer variation tied by Brian Wise features a Surface Seducer Howitzer baitfish popper head with Dragon Eyes for added fish-attracting commotion and a Fish-Skull Frantic Tail for frisky tail action.

Game Changer style flies get their movement from the Fish-Skull Articulated Fish-Spine system, which allows you to create multi-jointed, highly articulated streamers.

The Game Changer style of fly was originally designed by Blane Chocklett and has gained a reputation of having some of the most lifelike movement in the streamer fishing world and a go-to fly for many popular species in both freshwater and saltwater.
