Zonker patterns are very effective when it comes to targeting aggressive fish, be it trout, pike or perch. The Char-Mer Skullhead Zonker accurately mimics the a small char and was originally designed to target the monster brown trouts in Lake Thingvallavatn in Iceland.
Extremely good streamer pattern and is especially popular here in Iceland. It works really well for brown trout as well as sea run brown trout and some say that you don’t need another pattern in your box. That’s probably not true, but personally, I wouldn’t want to go fishing without it.
The rabbit zonker wing gives the pattern great movement in the water, and brushing out the dubbed body gives it a lot more “presence”
Fish this fly on the swing and you’re bound to create a reaction!
