I notice most flies for the
flats are tan in color.  I am not sure if this is for imitating crab,
shrimp, or baitfish.   Does anyone have any insight on what I should tie up?


Congratulations Chris!

    The correct answer to the above is "all of the above..." :-)  Crazy Charlies, Chico's Bonefish Specials, Snapping Shrmip, Clouser Minnows, Carpet Crabs,  small Lefty's Decievers, all good choices for beach fishing!  Deceivers in 6 & 4, all others, 6 & 8.
Colors:  Can never miss with Tan, but white won't be far behind.  Include flashes of chartreuse and dark royal blue...  Use flashabou and krystal flash sparingly, and GO FOR IT!!!  Have a great trip!

Happy Tying!
