The Tiger Clouser Terry Babich
It's winter, that time of the year when we can get our hands on some of the best freshwater fishing available to us, or perhaps even that we can possibly imagine. At this time of year the majority of guys that you ask will tell you that the most effective colours are sunset tones, black and red, and maybe even grey and black or purple. Tan is a colour seldom mentioned. This is probably because the guys in the know just don't want to share - you know what fishermen are like. (Just kidding!) Actually, tan has been coming through strong and with the imitation of bait fish being my biggest consideration I have put together this little baby. I sent a bunch off to the Zambezi and the results have been very positive indeed! Hook: Thread: Eyes: Under-Body: Wing:
