Ask Yourself - What Would Batman Do?
We'll keep this one short - but if you're a stillwater angler, you will want to have some of these in your box, especially at this time of year ...
The Zonker is a fly which has always amused me, it reminds me of the Batman TV series from the 1960s - hence the below image. Essentially a Zonker is a lure which is tied with a strip of fur and imitates another fish.
Zonkers are streamer flies on hooks sized 4 to 12, characterized by having a strip of fur (rabbit, squirrel or mink) tied on as the wing, with a shiny body and prominent eyes. The fur strip will pulsate with the current mimicking the action of fins, with shiny sides representing the reflective sides of a baitfish.
We've taken the original Zonker pattern, minimised it and now have them available for you to show the fish ...
The patterns in our Micro Zonker selection are tied on size 14's and 16's. The fur strip pulsates with the current and movement of the water, mimicking the action of a small fish.
We tried to think a little 'out of the box' with these and have taken the popular colours and minimised them. These flies are suitable for both stillwaters and rivers and make excellent patterns to use are the weather starts to warm a little and the fish are more active.
