Description

The Joe's Flies Short Striker "Classic" Size #8 combines the effectiveness of a hand tied fly with the irresistible flash of a premium gold or nickel spinner blade. A short striking trout is firmly hooked by the hidden trailing treble thus the name Short Striker. Sometimes it will come with a red tail.

Field Notes

This is a trout spinner-fly hybrid designed to be cast and retrieved for trout. The spinner blade adds flash and vibration while the dressed fly body gives it extra profile, making it useful in streams, rivers, and stillwaters when trout are feeding on small bait or insects.

Pros

  • Flashy blade adds attraction
  • Dressed fly body gives a natural profile
  • Small size is suited to trout

Cons

  • Treble hook can be snag-prone
  • Not ideal for very heavy cover
