Saltwater fly fishing is an exhilarating experience, but success largely depends on selecting the right flies. Among the top choices for anglers targeting species like striped bass, bluefish, and false albacore is the **Anchovy ALF Frontier Co Minnow #4**. This versatile fly mimics baitfish with lifelike action, making it a must-have in any saltwater fly box.

## **Why Choose a 1/2 Dozen Pack?**
When fishing in saltwater, conditions can change rapidly—tides shift, baitfish move, and predatory fish become selective. Having **six flies** ensures you’re prepared for:
– **Different fishing scenarios** (varying water clarity, light conditions, and currents)
– **Unexpected losses** (snags, toothy fish, or aggressive strikes)
– **Matching the hatch** (switching sizes or colors based on baitfish activity)
