White Minnow
$20.00
Shenk’s White Minnow is a famous pattern developed by Ed Shenk of Pennsylvania. Ed, along with Charlie Fox and Vince Marinaro are the legendary “river gods” of the famed LeTort Spring Creek found in South Central Pennsylvania. Ed has developed other popular patterns including the LeTort Hopper & Cricket and his Sculpin.
We learned to tie this pattern, tying with Ed himself, while fishing the area. Note: I have known Ed to tie this particular pattern with either wool or rabbit dubbing for the body. Our kits are supplied with rabbit dubbing, as we have found it to be more effective while fishing both style bodies.
Each “Fly-Kit”tm includes:
-
a custom tied fly, carefully packaged in a small plastic box.
-
color, digital, photographs of the tying steps.
-
a letter including material preparation tips & other information.
-
premium hooks in our favorite size.
-
all the necessary materials, hand selected, to tie eleven additional flies.
