RIO's Carp Cupcake YGroup_Vice This is tied on aOne of the flies I designed for redfish was the RIO's Muffin Top, which had a long flashabou tail meant to entice redfish. Last summer I was approached by a few of our marketing team members and told that they had been taking the RIO's Muffin Top, cutting the tail off, and slaying carp on it for years.
