North 40 Fly Shop eMagazine August 2016 | Seite 42

I've fished this fly using a

sinking line when targeting fish
that are holding deeper and
I’ve used a floating line when
targeting fish in smaller creeks or
when I’m wading. The spineless
minnow is buoyant. It sinks very
slowly. A Redington CPX 7wt
and Rio InTouch Outbound Short
WF7I/S6 gets this fly to the depth
where the fish live in my local
rivers and lakes. I’ve also used a
9wt and a heavier line, when the
current is really moving. The fly
is light enough to be thrown on
a 4wt with floating line. I have
customers that use this setup on
small creeks and rivers as well.
