OLD FLIES - SPUDDLER

This pattern was inspired by the Muddler Minnow and the Spruce Fly, and was one of the first western flies to simulate the sculpin minnow. Originally it was created by Red Monical and Don Williams who both worked for Dan Bailey in Livingston, Montana. The fly gained prominence when its creators, avid fishermen themselves, and others used it to catch brown trout from the Yellowstone River.
