This pattern is a staple in any bonefish box because it sinks quickly and offers lifelike movement that triggers strikes from wary fish. While it is famous for targeting bonefish, it also works well for redfish, snook, and other species feeding on small baitfish in shallow water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It Imitates\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fly mimics small baitfish, minnows, and shrimp that dwell near the bottom. The dumbbell eyes give it a jigging action that resembles a fleeing or injured creature darting for cover. The materials used, often softer than standard bucktail, pulse in the water to create the illusion of life even when the fly is paused.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFish this fly with a strip-pause retrieve. The heavy lead eyes cause the fly to dive between strips, creating a jigging motion that fish find hard to resist. Because the eyes are tied on top of the hook shank, the fly rides hook-point up. This allows you to bounce it along sandy or grassy bottoms with less risk of snagging. It is excellent for \"mudding\" bonefish or when you need to get your fly down quickly to fish cruising in deeper channels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the Bonefish Deep Minnow when fish are in water deeper than two feet or when strong currents require a heavier fly to reach the bottom. It shines in cloudy water or when fishing over mottled bottoms where a fly needs to make a disturbance to be noticed. It is also the right choice when fish are ignoring smaller, subtler shrimp patterns and want a more substantial meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe prefer this pattern because it combines the universal appeal of a Clouser Minnow with materials and hooks chosen specifically for saltwater battles. The hook point riding up is a huge advantage when fishing over turtle grass or coral rubble. The action of the wing material sets it apart from stiffer flies, as it continues to move and \"breathe\" in the water between strips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComparisons\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBonefish Deep Minnow vs. Crazy Charlie\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Crazy Charlie is a lighter, more subtle fly often tied with bead chain eyes. You should choose the Crazy Charlie for shallow water and spooky fish that might be spooked by the splash of a heavier fly. Choose the Bonefish Deep Minnow when you need to reach fish in deeper water or when a faster sink rate is required to get the fly in the zone quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBonefish Deep Minnow vs. Gotcha\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gotcha is a general shrimp imitation that usually sinks at a moderate rate.

Created by fly tier Gunnar Brammer, this pattern combines a realistic baitfish profile with a unique \"slow jig\" action that mimics a wounded or fleeing meal. Whether you are targeting redfish in the marsh, snook under mangroves, or peacock bass in the jungle, this fly deserves a spot in your box.

The weighted eyes are positioned to act as a keel, causing the fly to dive slightly when you pause and dart upward when you strip. For the best action, attach the fly using a non-slip loop knot, which allows it to flutter freely. You can also use a two-handed strip retrieve to move the fly quickly when fish are chasing active bait. It works well on a floating line in shallow water or a sink-tip line for deeper structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTie this pattern on during the fall mullet run or whenever you see schools of small baitfish along shorelines.

Built around Enrico Puglisi's signature synthetic fibers and weighted with lead eyes, this fly pushes a realistic baitfish profile down into the water column where predators are actually feeding. Snook, tarpon, striped bass, false albacore, pike - the list of species that eat this thing is long and still growing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat It Imitates\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EP Lead Eye Little Minnow is a small-profile baitfish imitation that covers a wide menu of forage. Juvenile croaker, finger mullet, mummichogs, silversides, bay anchovies - if it's a slender baitfish between two and three inches, this fly can pass for it. The EP fiber body compresses in the water to create a translucent, tapered silhouette that looks remarkably alive, and the lead eyes add just enough weight to give the fly a subtle jigging action on the pause.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStrip this fly with short, erratic pulls to mimic a fleeing or injured baitfish. The lead eyes cause it to ride hook-point-up and dive on each strip, then flutter on the pause - that drop is where most of your eats happen. You can fish it on a floating line in skinny water, an intermediate line along flats and shorelines, or a sinking line when you need to get down in channels and deeper structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an excellent fly for working mangrove shorelines, oyster bars, dock lights at night, or any outflow where current concentrates bait. It also shines in the wash zone along beaches where snook and stripers are pinning bait against the sand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe EP Lead Eye Little Minnow earns its keep during low-light periods - dawn, dusk, and overcast days when predators push into shallow water to feed on baitfish. It is especially productive in stained or slightly murky water where the lead eyes help fish locate the fly by displacement as much as by sight. During fall mullet runs or spring bait migrations, this fly should be the first thing you tie on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lead eyes are what separate this fly from the standard EP Minnow. That added weight lets you fish it without always reaching for a sinking line, and it gives the fly a nose-down posture that triggers reaction strikes. The EP fiber sheds water on the backcast better than bucktail, which means fewer arm-killing false casts at the end of a long day. Available in a wide range of colors - from natural baitfish tones to subtle attractor combos like brown over gold - you can build out a full spread without repeating yourself. This is the kind of fly you dedicate an entire row in your box to and never feel silly about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComparisons\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEP Lead Eye Little Minnow vs EP Minnow (standard):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe obvious comparison. The standard EP Minnow rides higher in the water column and works beautifully on a floating or intermediate line when fish are feeding near the surface. The Lead Eye version sinks faster, rides hook-up, and has that jigging action on the strip-and-pause. If you are fishing deeper structure, current seams, or any situation where you need the fly below the top twelve inches, the Lead Eye is the better pick. Carry both.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEP Lead Eye Little Minnow vs Clouser Minnow:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Clouser is the benchmark for weighted baitfish flies, and it deserves that reputation. But the EP Lead Eye Little Minnow offers a more realistic profile thanks to the synthetic fiber body, which tapers and breathes in a way bucktail and flashabou simply cannot replicate. The Clouser casts a bit easier due to its sparser tie, so in heavy wind the Clouser might win. In calmer conditions or when fish are being picky about silhouette, reach for the EP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEP Lead Eye Little Minnow vs Lefty's Deceiver:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Deceiver is a bigger-profile fly that pushes more water and draws fish from farther away. The EP Lead Eye Little Minnow is the better choice when fish are keyed in on smaller forage - think two-inch glass minnows or juvenile mullet rather than full-size herring. The Deceiver also rides higher without added weight, so when you need to get down quickly in a tidal rip or channel edge, the lead eyes on the EP give you an obvious advantage without swapping to a heavier line.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Enrico Puglisi","offers":[{"title":"Shaded Back Country Lead Eyes \/ 4","offer_id":48477605953769,"sku":"SKU693728020513-SM093","price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Shaded Brown Lead Eyes \/ 4","offer_id":48477605986537,"sku":"SKU693728020452-SM083","price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Shaded Golden Lead Eyes \/ 4","offer_id":48477606019305,"sku":"SKU693728020476-SM075","price":8.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Shaded Olive Lead Eyes \/ 4","offer_id":48477606052073,"sku":"SKU693728020490-SM080","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/1846\/1673\/files\/enrico-puglisi-flies-ep-lead-eye-little-minnow-fly-1199941041.jpg?v=1761737059"},{"product_id":"enrico-puglisi-little-minnow-fly","title":"EP Little Minnow Fly","description":"\u003cdiv data-element=\"main\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-content-type=\"html\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Size: #4 (3\" Length)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSnook crushing juvenile croaker in the wash, tarpon feeding on tiny finger mullet, or striped bass beating on mummichogs, the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eEP Little Minnow Fly is a versatile pattern that covers it all.

The red glitter foam adds a trigger point that looks like gills, and the hook-up ratio is outstanding because the hook always rides correctly.

In these conditions, fish can easily spot the flaws in bulkier, opaque flies. It is also the perfect solution during the fall \"mullet run\" or whenever you see predators busting on tiny baitfish near the surface. The translucent body shines best when natural light can pass through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe love this fly because of its durability and texture. Traditional epoxy flies can crack if they hit a rock or a boat, but the \"mushy\" resin head on this pattern bounces back. The soft texture also prevents fish from spitting the hook immediately, as it does not feel like hard plastic. It holds up to toothy fish and aggressive strikes day after day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComparisons\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhitebait Mushy Fly vs Surf Candy:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The Surf Candy is a classic pattern that uses hard epoxy to create a durable head. While the Surf Candy is tough, its hard head can feel unnatural to fish, causing them to let go quickly. The Whitebait Mushy uses a flexible resin that feels soft like a real fish, encouraging predators to hold on longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhitebait Mushy Fly vs Clouser Minnow:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The Clouser Minnow is a jigging fly with heavy lead eyes designed to sink deep and bounce off the bottom. In contrast, the Whitebait Mushy is unweighted or lightly weighted, meant to swim high in the water column. Choose the Clouser for deep dredging and the Mushy for fish feeding near the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhitebait Mushy Fly vs EP Peanut Butter:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The EP Peanut Butter is a taller, bulkier fly made of synthetic fibers that pushes a lot of water. It is great for imitating shad or bunker but can be too large for picky fish eating tiny bait. The Whitebait Mushy has a much slimmer, streamlined profile that is better suited for mimicking anchovies and sand eels in calm water.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Umpqua","offers":[{"title":"Bay Anchovy \/ 2","offer_id":48478443012329,"sku":"SKU052857161779-LG010","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silverside \/ 2","offer_id":48478443045097,"sku":"SKU052857161762-SM099","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 2","offer_id":48478443077865,"sku":"SKU052857211931-SM063","price":7.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0749\/1846\/1673\/files\/umpqua-flies-whitebait-mushy-fly-1199952720.jpg?v=1761968660"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.tridentflyfishing.com\/collections\/snook-flies.oembed","provider":"Trident Fly Fishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
