But when it comes to my favorite place to fly fish, it would be, hands down, the Everglades.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just about the snook, the redfish, and all the other wonderful fish that live there. It\u2019s also about the wading birds, the beautiful shallow flats with the fluctuating tides, the red mangrove trees along most of the shorelines, the other menagerie of trees, plants, and flowers, and so much more. I love that world. I love brackish water\u2014I feel it runs through my veins.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no coincidence that today I live about 90 minutes from the Everglades\u2014and go as often as I can.\u00a0 \u00a0Learn more about fishing the Everglades <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tailflyshop.com\/collections\/subscription-packages\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click Here to Subscribe<\/a> <\/span>or <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tailflyshop.com\/collections\/back-issues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pick Up the Latest Issue<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Chico&#8217;s First Fly Pick is Marabou Madness<\/h2>\n<p>For a long time, I had an idea for tying an all-marabou Sea-Ducer. Then, while working on my redfish book around 2011, I finally put a No. 1 hook in the vise and started to tie one. After a few weeks of trial and error, I had a fly I liked. The tail was a whole marabou feather, stem and all, with a bit of flash. The head was marabou feathers wrapped around the shank.<\/p>\n<p>Learn tie and fish The Seven Everglades Patterns\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tailflyshop.com\/collections\/subscription-packages\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Click Here to Subscribe<\/span><\/a> or <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tailflyshop.com\/collections\/back-issues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pick Up the Latest Issue<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8202\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/marabou-madness-1-1.jpg?resize=1000%2C398\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"398\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/marabou-madness-1-1.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/marabou-madness-1-1.jpg?resize=768%2C306&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Tying and Fishing The Everglades Seven Go-to patterns for the Glades by Chico Fernandez\u00a0 I\u2019ve fly fished in many places around the world, from Tierra del Fuego to Alaska,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13211,"featured_media":8197,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[35,29],"tags":[2402,3867,4421,86,87,30],"yst_prominent_words":[439,318,330,314,982,789,4134,1959,533,2205,452,1149],"class_list":{"0":"post-8193","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fly-tying","8":"category-tail-fly-fishing-magazine","9":"tag-chico-fernandez","10":"tag-chico-fernandez-fly-fishing","11":"tag-fly-fishing-the-everglades","12":"tag-fly-tying","13":"tag-saltwater-flies","14":"tag-tail-fly-fishing-magazine"},"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Clouser-redfish-2.jpg?fit=1000%2C787&ssl=1","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8193","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13211"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8193"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8193\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8203,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8193\/revisions\/8203"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8197"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8193"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8193"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8193"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tailflyfishing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=8193"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
