Friday Night Flies – Moto Minnow Variant
Friday Night Flies – Moto Minnow Variant
The Moto Minnow is a streamer pattern that seems to be all the rage right now. It is a great year round pattern that represents salmon fry, with the hot spot it shows a wounded fry. Any predatory fish in the water would be delighted to tango with it. The flash of it and its ability to dive deep makes the Moto Minnow streamer a fly proven to get strikes from trout, salmon and char in most any type of water. It is a great fly pattern for getting down deeper in faster runs or in Stillwater. Even the cone head on the Moto Minnow fly helps attract fish.
