Field Notes

A weighted articulated streamer designed to get down in the water column and imitate baitfish. Fish it with strips and pauses near deeper edges, drop-offs, or other areas where predators are holding below the surface.

Pros

  • Weighted head helps it sink quickly
  • Articulated body adds swimming action
  • Good baitfish profile for larger predators

Cons

  • May be too heavy for very light fly rods
  • Not ideal when fish are feeding on tiny insects
