We use the Clouser Minnows of various sizes, including 2 and 6 for bass and 2/0 in Chartreuse/White and 2/0 Silver Shiner, for catching bass, blues, stripers, reds, and trout in both freshwater and saltwater environments. For bass, a floating line is typically recommended, while the Scientific Anglers Sonar Sink 30 Warm 350 grain fly line and a size 2/0 Clouser Minnow are recommended for catching musky and saltwater species.
