Mini Muddler Selection JanBarbless Mini Muddlers. We have a selection of barbless muddlers, especially tied for stillwater & river fishing, ideally targeting rainbow, brown & blue trout. The Muddler Minnow (on which these are based) was invented by Don Gapen of Minnesota, in 1937, to imitate the sculpin. The Muddler, as it is informally known by anglers, was popularised by Montana fisherman and fly tier Dan Bailey. It is now a popular pattern worldwide with the flies
