Albie Silverside Imitation

Purpose-built for False Albacore

Specifically tied to mimic silverside rainbait—a key forage for False Albacore along the East Coast (Massachusetts to Maryland)—this compact streamer is a go-to for saltwater fly anglers targeting these sleek speedsters. Hook up with efficiency—silverside style.


 Key Features

  • True-to-Life Imitation
    Olive-over-white wing with flash replicates the translucent appearance of silversides, an important bait species during albie season.

  • Hand-Tied on Strong Saltwater Hooks
    Crafted on Mustad 2X strong hooks, every 1″–2″ fly is robust and designed for serious hooksets.

  • Sparse, Streamlined Profile
    Minimalistic build—just enough material to entice albies, even under calm, clear conditions.

  • Optimal Sizes
    Available in #2–#4, ideal for matching the typical size of local bait.

  • Quality Assurance
    MMRF stands behind their flies with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, ensuring dependable performance each season.


Pro Tips for Maximum Effect

  1. Fast, Erratic Strips – Albies chase fleeing bait. Use long, quick strips to swivel the pattern in front of feeding fish.

  2. Match the Hatch – Adjust for size and color: olive/white works for silversides; choose anchovy imitations when bait changes.

  3. Clear Water, Clear Minds – In calm clarity, use the #4 size and long fluorocarbon leaders to prevent spooking the fish.

Albie Silversides imitation flies are essential saltwater patterns—hand-tied, precise, and purpose-built. Whether blitzing breaking fish or blind-casting incoming tides, their realistic profile and quality build make them a fierce contender when albies are blasting baitfish on the surface.
