Description

The Clouser has become the "go to" fly everywhere in the saltwater world and no fly box is complete without a serious selection of these remarkable baitfish imitations. Nowhere is that more true than in Australia, where monster Queenfish were consistently suckered.

The Half & Half is a combination of two well-known saltwater fly patterns. It has the realistic body of the Deceiver, and the lead eyes provide a lifelike swimming action like a Clouser Minnow. These features together have made the Half & Half one of the best big fish patterns around.
