Mud Minnow

Mud Minnow: Size 4, 2.  Whether you call them cockahoes, or killifish, or mud minnows, redfish love these little marsh minnows. Don Gapen's classic Muddler Minnow, with a few modifications, becomes this great redfish fly.  .It doesn't quite float, because the rabbit strip tail wants to pull it under, but it doesn't quite sink because the spun deer hair head and plastic bead eyes work to keep it afloat.  It's just right to throw into the edge of the grass where the redfish root, and the mono weedguard keeps it from snagging. $2.50 each.
