Moto's Minnow
Flash, movement, and the ability to go deep make the Moto's Minnow streamer a fly proven to get strikes from trout in most any type of water. It is a great fly pattern for getting down deeper in faster runs or in stillwater. Even the conehead on Moto's Minnow fly helps attract fish. In light brown, dark brown. Sizes: 6, 8, 10.

KILLER FLY,
September 13, 2007
By: FOURPAWS
"This fly ought to be outlawed! The cutthroats go nuts over it in any weather situation. It is nailed by the big ones before the little ones can get to it. Much better than any dry. Plus, you can keep a tight line! It gives the fisher-person an unfair advantage.
Fished in Kamaih, ID

"I fish the Everglades on a regular basis and since being introduced to the moto minnow by an Orvis employee, I've had more action than I could have hoped for. Whether it's Peacocks or Largemouths, this fly is a constant producer."

"So far this year I've landed two Rainbows over 22" on the Moto. I've collected a photo gallery of large trout caught with the Moto since it's release. I wouldnt be caught dead on any river without it! Excellent streamer!"

"this is the best all around prospecting fly I have ever used!. First 2 times out I caught browns over 20" and it hasn't let me down since. I am travelling to Nova Scotia in 2 weeks and will probably use nothing but the moto."

"If you're looking for new streamer to try, this is it!! This streamer looks great in the water. And large browns do love it, as Tom said, and they hit it with authority. I especially like it tied in size 10 for the smaller streams I usually fish and find to be an excellent early morning & later afternoon pattern."

"This is one of the best new streamers to come along in years. Brown trout especially have trouble keeping their lips off it. If you tie your own, substitute mottled hen saddle for the partidge--easier to work with."
