Tilapia and Sooty Grunter

[Nicko_Cairns]

Hey guys,

Before I try to get a barra on fly I need to blow out the cobwebs, Tinaroo has stacks of Tilapia (unfortunately) and some other fish like Sootys, anyone ever tried to get Tilapia on fly? I'm thinking maybe a bread imitation pattern? At night the Tilapia come into the shallows to hide, so probably a surface type pattern would be best, or one that sits part in and out (can't remember the term, it's been too long!)

Thanks.

I've caught a few Tilapia down the Mulgrave on little Crazy Charlies.

Sooties go well on Gurglers and clousers (just about anything will eat a clouser). Good luck.
