Blending fibers is not an easy task, it takes a lot of observation in the water to understand the baitfish colors, movement and behavior. It took me years and several attempts to understand how to put these colors and fibers together. The key being the density of the fibers and the color blend. EP MINNOW FIBERS 3-D is your choice to tie any Clouser Minnow flies and if you're into the new era of jig/fly, look no further. EP MINNOW FIBERS 3-D are perfect for 6” flies and longer because the blend is stiffer and will hold the shape of the fly.
