Glassy Minnow – Trophy Trout Fry Imitation
A highly effective stillwater and river pattern, the Glassy Minnow is designed to imitate small, translucent fry and juvenile baitfish that Trout feed on aggressively. Its slim, semi-transparent profile tied with UV and pearl flash materials produces a natural shimmer that closely matches real minnows in clear water.
Best fished on an intermediate or slow-sinking line with a varied, darting retrieve to mimic the erratic movement of fry. The Glassy Minnow comes into its own during fry-feeding periods and post-stocking, when large Trout hunt shallow margins.
Tied locally by FlyzInc on premium hooks with durable, high-quality materials, this fly has a proven track record through Reel Fly Fishing of connecting anglers to trophy Trout in South African stillwaters.
