Question: Where to buy small streamer flys - 08/14/20 02:43 PM
I am looking for a place to buy small streamer flys. When I crappie fish at PK I find that the crappie are packed in with huge schools of big bluegills all competing for Ghost Minnows attracted to the lights ( night fishing). I would like to find a small streamer fly with a number 8 hook that I could tie above my 1/4 jig with a crappie nibble on it to catch these guys. Drop a jig or jig with a minnow down in the places I fish and it is constantly attached by these perch. I actually think there are more crappie in these places than I catch but the perch are so aggressive the crappie have a hard time getting a chance to hit my jig.
Really appreciate any help on this. Looking for something that will mimic a ghost minnow.

I'm no expert but you may want to search eBay or Amazon for Cyperts Minnows.

I tie a bunch. Just how small and what color combos would you like. I have #6 and #8 clousers tied in grey/white, chartreuse/ white, and some in various tri color combos as well even some to mimic small ghost minnows. I can tie clousers down to a size #10. I have some examples in the Flyfishing classifieds.
