The Shaggy Bugger

Shaggy Bugger Pattern

Hook: nymph hook sizes 2-12

Thread: 6/0 wine coloured

Head: copper or gold bead

Tail: brown maribou

Rib: copper wire

Hackle: brown palmered

Body: Multi-coloured leech yarn

Tie in tail then attach copper wire and yarn. Wind yarn forward to head than tie in hackle. Wind hackle back to bend and secure with wire. wind wire forward to head and tie off - really easy.

Tip: I have caught everthing with this fly - trout, bass, perch, walleye - my version of a whooly bugger. Try different colours or add a little tinsel or flashabou to the tail.
