Clouser Foxee Red - Umpqua Fly
Details
The Clouser Minnow is one of the most iconic fly patterns of all time. Originally designed by Bob Clouser to target smallmouth bass in Pennsylvania, the Clouser is a pattern that can be used to target nearly any species of fish that anglers target on the fly. The Foxee Red Clouser is a freshwater variation that has a reputation for fooling a variety of both bass and trout species. Fish it as a wounded baitfish or a fleeing crayfish.
