Quick take
UV-sensitive polar fry imitation flies, tied on size 8 hooks for trout and salmon in cold water.
These ten flies are tied on a size 8 hook and run about 1.5 inches long, a compact minnow imitation for close-range casts. The set spans ten colors, with trout, bass and crappie named as the target species. Each fly is small and light, which suits a lighter fly outfit.
Best for
- Early spring and fall when trout feed on minnow fry
- Salmon and steelhead smolt imitation
- Sinking presentations below the surface
Skip if
- You need dry fly patterns
- You fish heavily pressured water; these are visible
Strengths
- Ice dub material sinks readily for reaching bottom feeders
- UV coating adds visibility underwater
- Size 8 is medium, suitable for many trout streams
Trade-offs
- Dark color is less visible than bright patterns in bright sunlight
- Size 8 may be large for very small creeks
- Requires fly rod and reel; not suitable for spinning

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
