The White Zonker is a classic baitfish imitation streamer known for its pulsing, lifelike movement and eye-catching profile in the water. Featuring a white rabbit strip that breathes and swims with every twitch or pause, this fly excels at mimicking wounded or fleeing baitfishmaking it deadly for large, aggressive trout, bass, and even pike. The clean, high-contrast coloration is especially effective in clear or slightly stained water, and it really shines on overcast days when fish are feeding confidently near structure or depth.

Tied with a flashy underbody and soft rabbit fur, the White Zonker maintains a natural swimming action whether stripped, swung, or dead-drifted. Its brightness and movement make it an excellent search pattern in lakes, rivers, and tailwaters when predatory fish are actively hunting.

To fish the White Zonker effectively, cast it along banks, through deeper pools, or across current seams. Strip it in with short, varied retrieves to imitate an injured baitfish or swing it across holding lies with a sink-tip line to reach the strike zone.
