SaltwaterBorski Bonefish Slider

The Borski Bonefish Slider is a classic flats pattern designed for stealthy presentations to spooky bonefish. It features a tapered body of spun and clipped deer hair that gives it a natural profile and slight buoyancy, allowing it to “slide” quietly along the bottom. The tail is typically made from craft fur or Arctic fox for lifelike movement, often accented with flash. Small bead chain eyes provide just enough weight without creating a hard splash. The fly is tied on a saltwater hook with durable thread and requires careful trimming of the deer hair for an even silhouette and smooth landing.
