Default Put and Kill -so disgusting

From: Ken Fortenberry

What's amazing about that ? A wooly bugger is a spot on imitation
of a trout chow pellet. You may as well be using power bait.


Huh? I've never yet seen a Wooly Bugger that looks even remotely like Trout
Chow. In my experience freshly stocked trout will attack anything with a lot of
action and/or flash. He would likely have done as well with any streamer.

You may be confusing a Wooly Bugger with a Glo-Bug, which is an egg imitation.
In the smaller sizes, trout could take one to be a pellet. You gotta lay off
the dries a bit and do a little dredging with the rest of us, so you can get
your pattern identification straight. G
