I have just tied some articulated woolly buggers, not gave them a swim yet.

I dressed the hook with the body and the tail on a piece of twisted stainless wire with a couple of glass beads between then. will try to get some pics up later.

 

ps. i hope the big browns like them. :thumbup:

I want to add my 2 cents on the topic:

 

Here are the articulated nymphs and sculpins which work well for any good size Salmonid.

 

Photo 1: These nymphs have weighted head and soft belly out of a synthetic tube-like string. The tip of the string is melted around the hook eye and shank which keeps the hook in place.

 

Photo 2: Lenok (Siberian trout) with two animals out of its stomach and two imitations of the same animals.

 

Photo 3: The sculpin imitations and the "bases" with a string used for such flies. The big stoneflies also could be tied on such bases.

Hope you post up your results with the monsters. I tried a damsel nymph pattern with hinged plaited marabou tail last year and seemed to suffer lots of tail nips that didn't hook up. Told myself the trout were too small! :rolleyes: This year have found a new loch to target with browns running to 5lb I'm informed.
