Mena's Double Fuego

The Double Fuego was created at my bench when I was thinking about how good of a fly Cheech’s Articulated Trout Slider is and I wanted something smaller than that fly but still utilized Metallic Ice Dub which I feel is really what makes the Articulated Trout Slider have such killer action. I added large lead eyes to give the fly more of a jig action and the Bruiser Blend head with a marabou collar push a ton of water for a fly this size.

With the front hook having so much water pushing ability, it makes the 100% synthetic material dressed rear hook shimmy like crazy. This is one of those flies that doesn’t look special until you start to fish it! Give this one a chance (especially the gold!) a chance and I feel it’ll quickly move up your streamer lineup.”
