Reichbaum 0 Report post Posted September 19, 2023 I got bored tying the same old buggers, so I love making simple variations. I got some new red dubbing with super long fibers, so decided to tie that in behind the conehead bead to create a hotspot. Maybe it imitates gills but I think the fish trigger on it because it looks like the bugger (in this color a baitfish imitation) is bleeding. Let me know what you think! https://theflyindex.com/conehead-wooly-bugger/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BenPhartin 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2023 I like taking a few barbs of red marabou and lashing them on top the main feather. I like to imagine when its stationary the red barbs kinda float around like the bugger is bleeding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
