About this fly
Trim and shape the Minnow Head Brush. The Sipper does it all. Wakes, Chugs, Pops and most importantly it catches fish. With the unique head design this allows you to fish a top water fly where the fish can actually see the full baitfish profile subsurface. It has characteristics of a gurgler, a popper and a diver. You can scale this tie to match any size baitfish for your area or target species. Use slow short constant twitches for a waking action to simulate a dying baitfish or use long aggressive strips for a popper and diver style action. Redfish, Jacks, Snook, Bass and Juvenile Tarpon all love this fly.
