Conehead Muddler Minnow
In Stock • Bozeman, MT
Description
The Muddler Minnow is one of the most enduring streamer patterns in fly fishing, and the conehead version takes this classic to the next level. By adding weight at the front of the fly, the Conehead Muddler gets down quickly, swims with a jigging action, and pushes more water—all while retaining the trademark bulky profile and deer hair head that make it such an effective baitfish and sculpin imitation.
This versatile streamer can be stripped fast for aggressive trout, swung across current seams, or dead-drifted along the bottom where sculpins live. The conehead also helps punch through heavier currents and adds flash to trigger strikes. Its natural look and erratic movement make it equally at home in big Western rivers, small creeks, or even warmwater fisheries for bass.
