Friday Night Flies – Rocket Minnow
The Rocket Minnow is a quick and easy unweighted Steelhead fly. It’s a good idea to have patterns in a variety of weights in your box because it is easier to change a fly than it is sink tips, to allow you to fish different depths in the water column. This pattern has a great teardrop profile and it can also be a fantastic Sculpin imitation.
