New Fly in the Fly Shop: The Shad-Colored Clouser



That's right!  You can buy your very own shad-colored Clouser minnows as well.  These flies are tied with white bucktail on the bottom, gray bucktail on top, and large dumbbell eyes.  The hook is a Gamakatsu Executive Series B 10 S, size 2 and this hook is SHARP!  This fly is going to look and move like a dying shad which should get the attention of any predatorial fish!

The fly is a streamer and could catch anything that eats shad.  As far as the action of the fly, it rises through the water column when stripped and dives when paused.  A faster retrieve would have a less up and down motion but more flutter and wiggle.  The white bucktail flutters  has a good wiggle to it.  The fly has a long, slender profile like most species of shad.  Whether you are fishing for largemouth, smallmouth, trout, white bass, or any other minnow eater (occasional catfish for example), this fly is going to tempt them.  All flies sold by me are tied by me upon receiving an order. No flies are ever outsourced or purchased from another vendor. 

To purchase some of your own, please click on the link at the top of this post or on the link below!  All proceeds go towards the money that I need to start a fly fishing guide service and more specifically, the purchase of a boat.  All support is greatly appreciated and no matter the size of the order, I treat all customers as the valued individuals that they are!
