Field Notes

This is a streamer-style fly with a zonker strip wing that creates a lot of movement in the water. Fish it with a strip-and-pause retrieve on a floating or sinking line to imitate baitfish and trigger reaction strikes.

Pros

  • Very mobile pattern with strong action
  • Good baitfish imitation
  • Works with a variety of lines and retrieves

Cons

  • Can be less effective in very still water if not retrieved actively
  • May require some practice to dial in the retrieve speed
