Designed by streamer innovator Jason Sobota, the Swimmin’ Jimmy is a broad-profile baitfish imitation built to provoke violent takes from apex predators. With its flat face, flared silhouette, and pulsating tail, this fly delivers a side-to-side swim action that mimics a struggling baitfish in distress.
Perfect for big trout, bass, and other meat-eating game fish, the Swimmin’ Jimmy tracks true on a strip and pauses with a tantalizing body stall—exactly what opportunistic fish look for in their next ambush target.
