The Clouser Minnow was originally developed as a smallmouth bass pattern by smallmouth guide, Bob Clouser. Since then it has become a universal fly for all types of species and is easily the most popular saltwater pattern around. It has become a staple for bonefish, small tuna, jacks, and in the Northwest, the most popular pattern for salmon and sea-run cutthroat trout in the salt. Blue and white is our recommendation for an all-purpose tuna and dorado color. Size 2 pictured.
