Another newbie question (probably a stupid one too). The Woolly
Bugger and Woolly Worm seem to be so similar that I wondered if it was silly to carry both? I've tied and fished the Woolly Bugger and had success. I've never fished a Woolly Worm. It looks pretty easy to tie, so it wouldn't be a big deal to tie some up and try them. I need help here, what do you think? - Dave K. |

Tied with or without bead heads or cones heads...in different colors from purple to pearl with and without flashabou...tied in colors to imitate sculpins and crawfish...although not one of my favorite trout flies, I've caught a goodly portion of my trout and steelhead on wooly buggers... john |

They look similar but behave differently and suggest different potential food items to the fish. Same here, I carry both. I have some success with the bugger and trout (weighted and small #6-10), but it seems that the crapies and smallmouth around here prefer the worm (#2-6, weighted or not). -- Hope to read you soon, Denis www.uqtr.ca/~lamyd You'll have to eat the SPAM to E-mail |

Wolfgang. He's the Idiot. apologies for the confusion. Interesting. Here we have an on topic thread going along smoothly, without so much as a hint of disagreement or rancor, and you feel compelled to change that. Why do you suppose that is? Edmond Dantes Moron.
