Simulating Baitfish
Sometimes, you just need a good baitfish. Here's what we recommend.
When trying to mimic baitfish, pick streamers that simulate local baitfish when choosing streamer files. For freshwater trout fishing, pick patters such as the Black Ghost, or white Marabou that simulate dace and small freshwater minnows. For inland striper fishing, pick slab-sided flies that simulate shad that are food for these game fish. For bass and other warm-water fishing, pick fat and dark brown flies such as the muddler minnows and similar patterns that simulate sculpins and mad toms.
