Little Swimmer (2-Pack)

The Little Swimmer is a baitfish pattern that combines multiple articulated sections, a soft chenille body, and a flexible tail to create a swimming motion throughout the fly. Its tapered profile and trout coloring target larger fish that are feeding on juvenile trout. Work it along banks and through deeper pools with a steady series of short strips, then mix in pauses and changes of speed. Give the jointed body room to move between strips, and vary the retrieve to suggest a cruising or fleeing baitfish. Color Selection Rainbow Trout: A useful choice where young rainbows are common. Try it when you want a trout imitation with a lighter body and contrasting pink stripe. Brown Trout: A good starting point in water where juvenile brown trout are part of the food supply. Use it to suggest the darker, mottled appearance of small trout and other baitfish.
