Retro's Nasty Buggers

Those look great retro could I get a recipe?

 

Kamasan B200 size #8

Color thread to match bugger dubbing

MS Bugger Dubbing any color/colour.......In a dubbing loop and trimmed afterwards to desired look, I just trim the really long ones

KRAP Dubbing UV-X Blackish is also good all from FTDs

Marabou tail any color /colour.

3.5 mm cone head in brass or black/ tungsten

Oh yes and I always add a little lead free wire up at the front for extra weight.
