  Q: Why are the flies sometimes not in stock?
  A: GC flies are in high demand and they tend to sell out very quickly. These are specialized, custom-tied flies that are technically difficult and time consuming to tie to the correct specifications. As a result, our factory sometimes cannot produce them fast enough and therefore are not always available.

  Q: Can I customize the solid colors?
  A: Yes, you can easily “customize” any of the solid color flies (such as the white) by using a permanent marker pen to color the body or add spots or stripes to “match the bait-fish hatch." 

  Q: Is they easy to cast?
  A: Yes, the fly is tied with an ultra-lightweight, synthetic “Finesse” material that sheds water giving you a fly that is easy to cast with a 5-weight or higher fly rod.

   Q: Can they be used in saltwater?
  A: Yes! The flies can be used in both fresh and saltwater. The articulated shanks are made of stainless spring steel and the Kona hooks have a high-quality black-nickel finish.

  Q: How many articulated segments does the fly have?
  A: Six segments: the hook + five Articulated Fish-Spine shanks including the Tail shank.

  Q: What hook does it use?
  A: It uses a Kona Big Game Hunter (BGH) #2 hook which is an ultra-sharp, high quality, short shank hook designed specifically for Game Changer style flies.

  Q: How durable are the flies?
  A: Very! The precise method the flies are tied, and the high percentage of modern, synthetic materials used in them make for a tough, hardy fly that should stand up to dozens of landed fish.
