Umpqua Kreelex Minnow Coppar/Gold

Umpqua Fly Kreelex Minnow is a highly visible streamer designed to trigger aggressive takes from trout, bass, redfish and other predators. Built on a 3x–4x long streamer hook, it offers a slim baitfish profile that tracks straight and pushes just enough water to get noticed.

The body is tied entirely from two colours of Kreinik Flash, giving a strong flash and movement even in low light or coloured water. Combined with heavy Dazl-eyes, the fly sinks quickly into the strike zone and gives a jigging, darting action on the strip.

Fish the Kreelex Minnow on a floating, intermediate or sink-tip line, depending on current and depth. It works well with both fast, erratic strips for hunting fish and slower retrieves when predators are cautious. A solid choice for everything from small streams and rivers to lakes and coastal flats.
