The Morlock Goby was tied many years ago to target Great Lakes Carp on Beaver Island. Over the years it has proven a great fly and many other species have fallen prey to it. This is a triple articulated fly that utilized some basic fly tying techniques. It also incorporates a deer hair head. If you are just wanting to get into working with deer hair this is a great fly to start!
