I know, I know you’ve already got plenty of woolly buggers and don’t need more. But that’s not exactly true. Many fly fishermen say that you can never have too many woolly buggers. After all, it’s on almost every expert’s list of “essential flies”. There are so many colors and variations you can’t have tried them all. The Woolly Bugger is the most recognizable, and likely the most commonly fished streamer fly ever tied. The woolly bugger attracts fish in fast or slow water, rivers, ponds, and lakes, in dirty water or spring creeks. It imitates crayfish, minnows, sculpin, leeches, and many other natural foods trout love. This streamer fly pattern is a classic that you simply can't be without. I especially like to fish them in the fall when hungry trout are looking for something big and juicy. In any case let’s see what you clever fly tiers can come with.
Tie up 6 woolly buggers and bring them to the next chapter meeting on Thursday, October 12. There will be two raffles.
