Measuring in at just over 4”, this is ‘The SwEEper Minnow. It is a super effective, ultra lightweight (0.8grams) ‘glide-bait’ style fly, perfect for targeting bigger Perch (or any predatory fish that swims!). I have caught an absolute ton of smaller pike on this fly, which is great fun on the 6wt! Short, sharp strips will have this fly dancing side to side Like a jerk-bait, with its slim, high profile. Tied using only top quality materials, on Ahrex NS172 Curved Gammarus Hooks in size 2. These are intended to be cast on a fly rod (6wt is ideal), but they can also be used with a cheb weight, or rigged on a dropshot, allowing them to be cast on normal spinning gear. Show more
