Flashy Bugger - Underwater Footage!

[McFlyLures 0]

Wooly buggers are probably one of the most popular and versatile flies anywhere you fish. From California to Colorado to New York, and not just USA, but other countries as well. Anywhere you can fly fish, you can use a wooly bugger. They work for both fresh and even saltwater, however they tend to be most commonly found as freshwater streamers. These flies are a bit more flashy then the chenille tied buggers, and therefor are better suited in my opinion for more aggressive fish, or even stained water conditions.

Very nice. I like everything about your tying videos--camera work, music, instructions on-screen, pacing, and the underwater footage at the end is a really nice touch. Some of the best on YouTube IMHO.

I like the your Bugger, nice tie back on some of the materials. Your fly seems to work, nice video.

Yes, I like the video too. It is nice to see what the action/presentation of the fly is like in the water.

 

You have a slightly different way to tie than I do. I secure my feather in the rump and then palmer forward and apply fine gold wire in opposite direction.

The dubbing I use which seems to be a very very close match is hareline's ice dub rusty brown.

 

Again, great video.

 

Cheers, Ron...
