Double Hook Bass Streamer Fly

Bass Hit Short. This Fly Still Hooks Up.

Bass slash at baitfish more than they eat them head-on, which means a lot of strikes land on the tail of a long streamer instead of the head. A single-hook fly often comes up empty on those hits. This pattern solves that with a front hook and a rear hook connected by a flexible tube, so a fish that grabs the back end still finds metal.

Why the Tail Moves on Its Own

The tube connection between the front and rear sections lets the tail kick and dart independently from the weighted head instead of swimming in one stiff line. On the strip, that translates to a side-to-side wobble that reads as a baitfish trying to escape rather than a straight, predictable retrieve.

The synthetic flash fibers catch light from multiple angles as the fly moves, and the 3D molded eyes are set in epoxy rather than glued on, so they hold up through repeated strikes instead of falling off after a few fish.

Five Colors, One Box

This pack covers a season’s worth of conditions without digging through a bigger box:

• Red: Reads as an injured shad or shiner. Good for dawn, dusk, or right after a rain when baitfish get disoriented.
• Silver: High contrast in stained or runoff-clouded water.
• Orange: Leans toward crawfish and sunfish, useful around spawning beds in spring.
• Purple: Holds up best in low light, deep water, or heavy overcast.
• Olive: A more natural, toned-down option for clear water and pressured fish.

How to Fish It

Strip it in short, sharp pulls with brief pauses. The pause is when the tube connection lets the tail settle at an angle, which is often when a following fish commits. Cast it tight to structure like lily pads, laydowns, or rock edges where bass are holding, and work it back with varying retrieve speed until you find what triggers a take that day.

Common Questions

Will the double hooks tangle while casting? Rarely. The tube connection keeps some separation between the hooks. If they do tangle on a bad cast, a quick straighten with your fingers usually clears it.

What rod weight should I use? 6 to 8wt. A 7wt is the most comfortable all-around choice for most bass water. Pair it with a floating or intermediate line depending on how deep you’re fishing.

Can I use these in brackish or saltwater? These are built for freshwater bass. If you fish one in brackish water, rinse it thoroughly afterward, but don’t expect the same lifespan you’d get from a fly built specifically for saltwater.

How durable are the eyes? The eyes are molded epoxy, not stick-on. They hold up well through normal use and won’t pop off after a few fish.
