{{+1}}Gold TBH CDC brown fuzzel jig bugger{{-1}}
{{start}}
This fly is one of a series of 4 woolly bugger flies that I tie specifically for river fishing. They sinks well and the jig hook encourages the fly to bounce along the bottom hook point up which of course mitigates getting snagged up.
Most jig hooks are suitable for this fly but my preferences are Hanak, Fulling Mills and Knapek.
I generally tie my jig buggers in two sizes:
#10 with a 3.5mm tungsten bead and #12 with a 3mm tungsten bead
My other jig buggers include:
Silver TBH CDC MKII black with red tag
Copper TBH CDC MKII olive with orange tag
Black Sparkle bugger
