Kreelex Minnow
5 / 5
(2 Reviews)
Description
The Kreelex Minnow, designed by guide Chuck Craft, is a great baitfish pattern that has a metallic like finish that glows like a lantern underwater. Specifically for targeting trout, but it has proved to be a deadly pattern for just about every game fish on the planet. Use a very fast retrieval with sudden quick stops.
Pro Tip
Use two of them in tandem to get deep fast. Use a red Kreelex Minnow as the 1st fly, it’s a great attractor pattern.
