Cone Head Leech - Silver Minnow

Cone Head Leech – Silver Minnow

The Cone Head Leech - Silver Minnow bridges the gap between a leech imitation and a baitfish pattern — the silver and flash profile imitates a small minnow or smolt while retaining the undulating, lifelike movement of a leech body. This combination makes it a highly versatile streamer that produces on trout and bass wherever baitfish are part of the forage base. The brass cone head gets the fly down fast into the strike zone, while the glass bead and flash materials create a realistic, shimmering profile that predatory fish key on in a wide range of water conditions.
