HISTORY

This classic streamer was originally designed by Art Flick of Westkill, New York. It is first listed in his 1947 book 'Art Flick's Streamside guide'. The silver ribbing and body are great for imitating the silver under-scales found on many bait fish. It also helps catch the eye of any nearby predatory fish. In his book he suggests that the bait fish he was aiming at imitating were two species of minnows.
